Answer:

Consider x, y and z are the velocity in three different pipes and v as volume of he tank. Then,

10x = 12y = 20z = v

Hence

y = x/2 x and z = 5x/6

Considering all the three pipes are working,

No of hours * (x+y-z) = v

No of hours *(x + 1/2x + 5/6x) = v

No of hours*4x/3 = v

With velocity of x, the tank is filled in 10 hrs.

Then with velocity of 4x/3, time taken will be

3*10/4 = 7.5 hrs

When all the three pipes are working simultaneously, time taken to fill the tank is 7.5 hours
