A water tap fills a water at the rate of 25 l per minute into a water tank. Another water tap fills water in the same tank at the rate of 15 l per minute. If both the water taps are opened, then the water tank is filled in 15 minutes. Find the volume of the water tank.

One tap fills the water tank = 25 Litres/minute
Another tap can fills the water tank = 15 Litres/minute
If both taps are opened = 25 + 15 = 40 Litres/minute
It means tank will be filled by 40 litres/minute
Time taken to fill water tank when 2 taps are opened = 15 minutes
Capacity of the water tank = 40 × 15 = 600 Litres
We know that 1 Litre = 1000 cm³
Volume of the water tank = 600 × 1000 = 600000 cm³
