Q:

Two pipes A and B can fill a cistern in 4 minutes and 6 minutes respectively . If these pipes are turned on alternately for 1 minute each how long will it take to the cistern to fill?

Answer

As the pipes are operating alternatively, thus their 2 minutes job is = 14 + 16 = 512 


In the next 2 minutes the pipes can fill another 512 part of cistern.

Pipe A can fill 14 of the cistern in 1 minute 


Pipe A can fill 16 of the cistern in = 23 min
