It takes 2 hours for faucet A to fill a tank, and it takes faucet B 3 hours. How many hours will it take the faucet to fill the
tank together
1 answer:
Answer:
1.2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
A fills 1/2 tank per hour; B fills 1/3 tank per hour, so together they fill ...
1/2 +1/3 = 3/6 +2/6 = 5/6 . . . . tank per hour
The reciprocal of this rate give the rate in the units we want:
6/5 hours per tank.
__
At that rate, it will take 6/5 = 1.2 hours to fill the tank.
