Step-by-step explanation:

Pipes A and B can fill a tank in 18 minutes and 27 minutes, respectively.

When A, B and C are opened together, the empty tank is completely filled in 54 minutes.

Calculation:

Pipe A's 1 minute's work = 1/18

Pipe B's 1 minute's work = 1/27

Let pipe C's 1 minute's work be 1/C.

⇒ (1/18 + 1/27) - 1/C= 1/54

⇒ 1/C = 2/27

∴ Pipe C can alone empty the tank in 27/2 = 13 minutes.
