Question

Total time taken by two tap is 6 hrs 40 min what is the time taken by each tap and second tap takes 3 hr more than the first

Answer 1

Answer:

1st tap time= x hours.

2nd tap time=(x+3) hours.

$\huge \pink{atq} \purple{= > }$

$\red{ \tt{total \: time = 6hr + 40min}}$

$\green {x + x + 3 = \frac{20}{3} \: hr}$

$\blue{2x = \frac{20}{3} - 3}$

$\orange{2x = \frac{20 - 9}{3} = \frac{11}{3} }$

$x = \frac{11}{6} hours$

So,

1st tap time= 1 hour 59 min OR 11/6 hour.

2nd tap time= 4hr 50 min OR 29/6 hour.
