Working together, it takes two different sized hoses 30 minutes to fill a small swimming pool. If it takes 40 minutes for the larger hose to fill the swimming pool by itself, how long will it take the smaller hose to fill the pool on its own?
time taken to fill when working together = 30 min
So, in 1 min, part of pool filled = 1/30
Larger hose fill the tank in 40 min
So,
part of tank filled in 1 min = 1/40
Let time taken by smaller hose to fill tank = x minutes
So,
part of tank filled in 1 min = 1/x
part of tank filled in 1 min if both works together = 1/40 + 1/x
So,
1/40 + 1/x = 1/30
1/x = 1/30 - 1/40
1/x = (4-3)/120
1/x = 1/120
x = 120 minutes
Answer: 120 minutes

A small group of dockworkers in California, working for Topside Industries, an international shipping company, was being investigated concerning its involvement in a theft. The theft itself was a rather simple operation. The dock hands unloading foreign-made products acted in collusion with their supervisors in order to steal certain items, which they marked on official invoices as “missing” or “damaged” due to shipping. They later sold the items on the black market and split the money between the conspirators. The...
