Answer:
So in 1 hour, 19 part of the cistern without leak is filled. It is also given that cistern takes one hour more to be filled owing to a leak in its bottom. So the time taken to fill the cistern when it has a leakage in the bottom is 10 hours.

Answer:
The cistern is filled in 9 hrs.
∴ In 1 hour, 91 part of the cistern will be filled.
Again, it takes (9+1) hours =10 hrs. to fill the cistern due to a leak.
∴ In 1 hour, 1/10 part of the cistern will be filled when it leakes.
So, in 1 hour 1/9 −1/10 part
= 1/90 part will be emptied.
so ,the full cistern will be emptied in 1/1/90
hour = 90 hours .
