Answer:

It will take 720 minute to fill the tank

Explanation:

We have given that length of rectangular tank l = 12 m

Width w = 8 m

Rate at which water is filled in the tank = 550 l/min

And rate at which water come out from the tank = 150 l/min

So net rate of filling the tank = 550-150 = 400 l/min

Height up to which we have to fill the tank h = 3 meter

So volume of the tank V=12\times 8\times 3=288m^3

We know that 1m^3=1000liters

So 288m^3=288000liters

So required time to fill the tank time=\frac{288000}{400}=720 minute

The correct answer is: You're in the water in the Atlantic ocean! (closer to Europe than to America).

This point actually is quite close to the Portuguese Island of Azores, which are a group of islands discovered in 1427. They have a population of around 200 000 people. 

Azores are to the north of this point.
