The rate of filling is:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+10%2F25+\"$ liters/sec
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+40000+=+%28+10%2F25+%29%2At+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "where $\"+t+\"$ is in seconds
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+t+=+%2825%2F10%29%2A40000+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+t+=+100000+\"$ sec
\n" ); document.write( "[ sec ] x [ min/sec ] = [ min ]
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+100000%2A%281%2F60%29+=+t%5Bmin%5D+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+t%5Bmin%5D+=+1666.667+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "To the nearest minute it will take
\n" ); document.write( "1667 minutes to fill the 40KL pool
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Since $\"+27%2A60+=+1620+\"$ and
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+1667+-+1620+=+47+\"$ ,
\n" ); document.write( "It will take 27 hrs 47 min
\n" ); document.write( "( if you want it in hrs too )\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
