While pipe A can fill a tank in 3 hours, pipe B can take out a full tank in fours. A full tank fits 360 gallons of water. If both pipes are turned on at the same time, how many gallons of water would be in the tank in 6 hours?
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Rate of pipe A: 360 gallons per 3 hours
\n" ); document.write( "Rate of pipe B: 360 gallons per 4 hours
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Gallons in 6 hours:
\n" ); document.write( "6(360/3 + 360/4)
\n" ); document.write( "6(120 + 90)
\n" ); document.write( "6(220)
\n" ); document.write( "13320 gallons
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "This appears to be a trick question.
\n" ); document.write( "Since the tank only holds 360 gallons, if both pipe A and B were turned on for 6 hours, 13320 gallons would come from the pipe, 960 gallons would overflow the tank and only 360 gallons would remain in the tank.\r
