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 = $\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{6} = \frac{5}{12}$

In the next 2 minutes the pipes can fill another $\frac{5}{12}$ part of cistern.

Therefore, In 4 minutes the two pipes which are operating alternatively will fill $\frac{5}{12} + \frac{5}{12} = \frac{5}{6}$ Remaining part = $1 - \frac{5}{6} = \frac{1}{6}$

Pipe A can fill $\frac{1}{4}$ of the cistern in 1 minute

Pipe A can fill $\frac{1}{6}$ of the cistern in = $\frac{2}{3}$ min

Therefore, Total time taken to fill the Cistern

4 + $\frac{2}{3}$ minutes.
