Two water containers
There are 200 m³ of water in the first container, and in the second, 40 m³. The first container will flow down at a rate of 10 m³ water per hour. At the same time flows at the second rate of 5 m³ per hour. After how many hours will there be one-third as much water in the first container than in the second?
