A rectangular tank measuring 120 cm by 50 cm by 100 cm is 50% filled with water. 10 identical pails of water that are completely filled are then scooped out from it. The water level drops to 45 cm. The remaining amount of water in the tank is later poured into a container that contains 40 litres of water. The water is then drained out through a tap found at the bottom of the container at 10 litres per minute.
  1. What is the capacity of each pail?
  2. How long did it take to drain the water from the container completely? Answer in terms of minutes.

The figure shows taps A and B and an empty tank. At 2 p.m., tap A was turned on. Water flowed into the tank from tap A at a rate of 3.8 litres per minute. After 5 minutes, tap B was turned on. At 2.15 p.m., the tank was half filled with water.
  1. How many litres of water flowed out of tap B in 1 minute?
  2. At 2.30 p.m., what fraction of the tank was filled with water?

Water flows into a tank through Tap A and flows out of the container through Tap B. The capacity of a tank is 40 litres. When only Tap A is turned on, the container is completely filled in 16 minutes. When only Tap B is turned on, it takes 13 hour for all the water to flow out. If both taps are turned on at the same time,
  1. How long does it take to fill 40% of the tank?
  2. How much water has flowed out through Tap B by the time the tank is 35 filled with water?

Ray left City B for City A at 07 30. Lindy left City B for City C at the same time. At 10 30, they were 480 km apart. Both maintained a constant speed and reached their destination at the same time at 12 00 h.
  1. Find the distance between Cities A and C.
  2. If Lindy's speed was 35 the speed of Fred, find Ray's speed.

Kim, John and Zane started walking at the same time from the same starting point round a circular track. Zane walked in the clockwise direction. Kim and John walked in an anti-clockwise direction. Zane took 6 min to complete each round. He met Kim after every 2 minutes. He met John after every 5 minutes. The three friends keep to their respective speeds throughout their walk.
  1. How many rounds did Zane complete in 1 h?
  2. When Zane and Kim met again at the starting point after 1 h, John had completed 1.6 km. Find the circumference of the circular track in metres.

This figure is not drawn to scale. Wheel A and Wheel B are touching a vertical plastic sheet. The ratio of the radius of the small wheel A to the radius of the big wheel B is 2 : 5. The total radii of Wheel A and Wheel B is 196 cm. Both wheels are rolled out in opposite direction shown until they are 2660 cm apart. The two wheels need to make the same number of revolutions. How many revolutions does each wheel make assuming that each wheel must make a complete revolution? (Take π = 227)
