Step-by-step explanation:
This answer assumes filling the pool with water from these 2 pipes and not actually filling the pool with pipes themselves !!!
Pipe A alone: 5 hrs, so Pipe A in 1 hr : 1/5 of pool
Pipe B alone: 9 hrs, so Pipe B in 1 hr : 1/9 of pool
Together in 1 hr : 1/5 + 1/9 = 14/45 of the pool
So, 14/45 of pool per hour OR 1 pool / (45 / 14)
45/14 = 3.2142 .. which is appx. 3 hours & 0.2142 (~0.20) is appx. 12 minutes & 42 seconds.
(This needs you to convert Minutes to decimals of an hour)
So answer is 3 hours, 12 mins and 42 seconds
