The reservoir is filled with a large pump in 20 hours, a medium in 24 hours, and a small one in 30 hours. If all pumps are switched on simultaneously, how many hours will it be filled? - Pumping
The tank is filled with a larger pump in 12 hours and with a second pump in 15 hours. For how long does the tank fill when both pumps are switched on at the same time? - The coal
The coal stock would be enough to heat a larger room for 12 weeks and a smaller one for 18 weeks. It was heated for four weeks in both rooms, then only in the smaller one. Thus, the coal stock was enough for how long? - Larger pipe
Two supply pipes open into the pool, and the smaller pipe fills the pool in 40 hours. The empty pool will be filled in 16 hours if we open both supply pipes. How long would it take to fill if only the second, larger inlet pipe was opened? - Time for the Third Pump
A factory used two pumps to empty a tank. The first pump can empty the tank in 50 minutes, the second in 30 minutes. Both pumps were started simultaneously, but to empty the tank as quickly as possible, a third pump was also started after ten minutes. All
