Question

Two pipes running together can fill a cistern in 40/13 minutes. If one pipe takes 3 minutes more than the other to fill it, find the time in which each pipe would fill the cistern.

Answer 1

Let, time taken by faster pipe to fill the cistern be x minutes
Therefore, time is taken by slower pipe to fil the cistern = (x+ B) minutes 

Since the faster pipe takes x minutes to filt the cistern.
