Answer:
16 min
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Unitiary Method
tap A can fill tank in 24 min
in 1 min tap A will fill 1/24 tank
similarly,
tab B can fill tank in 48 min
in 1 min tap B will fill 1/48 tank
if both taps are opened together
in 1 min they will fill
= 1/24 + 1/48
= 3/48
= 1/16
since both tap together fill 1/16 tank in 1 min
they will fill whole tank in 16 min.
