Answer:
3 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the time taken by one tap to fill the tank be x
So, tank filled in 1 hour woulod be 1/x
3 alike taps are working
So, in 1 hour
1/x + 1/x + 1/x = 1/2
x = 6
So, one tap can fill the tank in 6 hours
If two taps are open let the time taken be x
x/6 + x/6 = 1
x = 3
So. 2 taps can fill the tank in 3 hours
