Answer:
9.1 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t represent time taken to fill the tank.
We have been given that a cold water faucet can fill a sink in 12 min, so the part of sink filed in 1 minute would be
.
The hot-water faucet can fill it in 15 min, so the part of sink filed in 1 minute would be
.
The drain can empty the sink in 25 min, so the part of drain emptied in 1 minute would be
.
The part of 1 full tank filled in t minutes, when both faucets are on and the drain is open would be:

Make a common denominator:









Therefore, it will take 9.1 minutes to fill the sink.

1. I did 9x8 since you usually work 8 hours a day but did not give answer, so I add or subtracted 0.5 to 8.
2. i did 9*7.5=67.5 , keep in mind that he worked for 11 hrs that day so 11-7.5=3.5 hours left
3. then I subtracted 67.5 from 114.75 and got 47.25
4. I divided 3.5 by 47.25 and got 13.5
