Two taps, *A* and *B* are of different sizes. Tap A fills a container with water in 3 minutes and Tap B fills the same container in 5 minutes. How much time Will it take if both the taps are turned on at the same time.
answer with working​

Sagot :

On its own tap A fills 1/3 of the container each minute.
On its own tap B fills 1/5 of the container each minute.
Both taps together will fill 1/3 + 1/5 = 5/15 + 3/15 = 8/15 of container per minute.
Filling the whole container using both taps will take 15/8 minutes = 1 7/8 minutes = 1 min 52.5 secs
