If a tank A can be filled within 10 hrs and 1/4th of tank B is filled in 19 hrs. Then what is the duration of the tank B to fill completely?
Read Solution (Total 22)
-
- Information about tank A is unnecessary..
1/4th of tank B takes 19hrs then
to fill completely it takes 19*4 = 76hrs.. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(39) No(0)
- yes 19*4=76 hrs. the first statement is to confuse us.

- 1/4 of tank B ---->19hrs
To fill completely = 19*4 hrs = 76 hrs - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 76hrs is the answer..
LCM(10,19)= 190.
so total unit of tank is 190.
A fills 19units in 1hr
B fills (1/4 * 10)2.5units in 1hr.
so B wants to complete 190 units in 76hrs...(2.5*76=190)
so 76hrs is the answer...... - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 1/4 of x=19
76hours - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 1/4 th of the tank B can be filled in 19 hours.
so time to fill completely will be 4*19 = 76 hours. - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 19*4=76 hrs

- sry...its 5 h 53 minutes
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(5)
- 1/4 of tank B =19hrs
To fill completely = 19*4 hrs = 76 hrs
hence option 76hrs
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- let 1 be the size of tank B
then if 1/4 of B takes 19 hours
so 1 will take (19*4)=76 hours. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 1/4 of tank B is filled in=19 hours
then tank B is completely filled=19*4=76 hours.... - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 1/4 part is filled in 19 hrs
1/1 " " " 19*4=76 hrs
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 19*4=76 the first statement is to confuse us.
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 76 hours....4*19=76
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- if in 19 hrs both tank A and 1/4 of B can be filled
in 19-10=9 hrs 1/4 B is filled
in 9*4=36 hrs tank B is filled
thus in 36+10 =46 both tank A and B can be filled
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- in this ignore the case A ,now concentrate on B it is filled a 1/4th tank in 19 hrs,now remaining tank is 3/4th
so simple calculation is 1/4+1/4+1/4+1/4 it means 19+19+19+19=76
that is 76 hrs to fill complete tank

- 76is right opp

- 1/4th of tank B is filled in 19 hrs then to be filled completely it will take 19*4=76 hrz....!!!
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Its like if 1/4th tank is filled in 19hrs
thus full tank is filled in 19*4=76hrs - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 1/4 of tank b takes 19 hrs
So 1/4*4=1
19*4=76hrs - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- a----->4
b------>3
a started at 9:00
b started after 2 min i.e 9:02
therefor 4/3=2/x
=>x=6 (is time difference between them)
therefor both have same level at 9:08 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- A-10hr
.25B-19hr
so B-19*.25=76hr - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
