It takes Faucet A 30 minutes to fill a tank measuring 12 cm by 10 cm by 22 cm completely while it takes Faucet B only 25 minutes. How long will it take to completely fill the tank with water if both the faucets are turned on at the same time? Leave the answer in minutes and round off to 2 decimal places.
Level 3
Tap A can fill a tank completely in 2 hours while Tap B takes an hour more to fill the same tank completely. There is a hole at the bottom of the tank which can empty the full tank in 6 hours. How long does it take for the tank to be completely filled if both taps are turned on?

The figure shows a rectangular tank measuring 30 cm by 15 cm by 20 cm. Vera poured 558 mℓ of water into the tank. Then she turned on two taps at the same time to fill up Tank with water. Water was flowing from both taps at the same rate. After 5 minutes, both taps were turned off but 1.2ℓ of water had overflowed and was collected in a tray. Find the rate of the flow of water of each tap in millimetres per minute.

Level 3
A rectangular tank measuring 60 cm by 50 cm by 25 cm was to be filled with water by two taps, A and B. Tap A which fills the tank at a rate of 8ℓ per minute was first turned on for 5 minutes before Tap B was turned on as well. If the tank was filled to the brim in a total of 7 minutes from the time when Tap A was first turned on, what is the rate at which Tap B fills the tank? Give the answer in ℓ per minute correct to 1 decimal place.
Level 3
An empty rectangular tank has a capacity of 90ℓ and a height of 50 cm. At 10 am, Tap A is turned on to fill the tank at a rate of 4ℓ per minute for 15 minutes. After 5 minutes, Tap B is turned on to drain water from the tank at a rate of 2ℓ per minute for 18 minutes. What is the height of the water level in the tank in the end? Express the answer in 1 decimal place.

Level 2 PSLE
Carlo filled a container with water using two taps. He turned on Tap A first and after 4 minutes, he also turned on Tap B. Both taps were turned off at the same time when the container was completely filled without overflowing. The graph shows the amount of water in the container over 16 minutes.
What fraction of the container was filled 4 minutes after Tap A was turned on? Express your answer in the simplest form.
In one minute, how many litres of water flowed from Tap B?

Level 3
Nick placed three empty containers side by side. The smallest container has a crack at the bottom of its side and the base area of each container is 18 cm2. After he turned on the faucet for 68 minutes, the height of the water in the smallest container became 8 cm although 0.8 mℓ of water is leaking out of the crack per minute. Find the rate of flow of water from the faucet. Give the answer in mℓ/min.
