Let the time taken by one tap =x
and the time taken by another tap =y
Tank filled in one hour
1/x+1/y=8/75 9 3/8 =75/8
x=y-10
1/y-10+1/y=8/75
2y-10/y²-10y=8/75
150y-750=8y²-80y
8y²-230y+750=0
4y²-115y+375=0
4y²-100y-15y+375=0
4y(y-25)-15(y-25)
y=25
y=15/4
Considering 25 hrs as y
therefore x=15
and the time taken by another tap =y
Tank filled in one hour
1/x+1/y=8/75 9 3/8 =75/8
x=y-10
1/y-10+1/y=8/75
2y-10/y²-10y=8/75
150y-750=8y²-80y
8y²-230y+750=0
4y²-115y+375=0
4y²-100y-15y+375=0
4y(y-25)-15(y-25)
y=25
y=15/4
Considering 25 hrs as y
therefore x=15
