Answer :

Answer:

in 9 minutes tank will contain only 122 L of water

Step-by-step explanation:

tank contains = 400 L of water

it is tied at a rate of = 32 L in a minute

required quantity in the tank = 122 L

water to remove = 400 - 122 = 278 L

i.e.

let x be the time taken by the removable water

32 L are removed in 1 minute

278 L will be removed in x minutes

x = 278/32 = 8.7 = 9 minutes

thus,

in 9 minutes tank will contain only 122 L of water
