alam ko yan! yan ang mga trick question sa math... iisa lng sagot dyan.. eto sagot..

pancho maybe better than bruce, but i dont really know, because they are not my friends.

problem solved! :)
 
a. Filling the whole tank with water in a minute?
b. Filling half tank with water in a minute ?
And dito sa c: ? Pancho + Bruce / x minute = y minute? haha idk XD
 

Tap X can fill a tank in 10 minutes and tap Y can fill it in 15 minutes. How long will it take to fill the tank if both taps are on?
----
Tap X rate: 1/10 job/minute
--
Tap Y rate: 1/15 job/minute
---
Together rate: 1/x job/min
----
Equation:
rate + rate = together rate
1/10 + 1/15 = 1/x
Multiply thru by 30x to get:
3x + 2x = 30
5x = 30
x = 6 minutes (time to fill the tank together)
