Answer:

I am giving you a hint... just like this do that

Step-by-step explanation:

tank filling rate = 1/8

time taken with leakage = 29 1/3 = 88/3

new tank filling rate = 3/88

therefore, rate of leakage = 1/8 - 3/88 = (11 - 3)/88 = 8/88 = 1/11

hence, it will take 11 hours to empty the tank, if the tank is full.
