document.write( "If \"two identical taps fill 2/5 of a tank in 20 minutes\", it means that one tap fills 1/5 of the tank volume in 20 minutes.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So, it will take 3 times 20 minutes to fill the rest  of the tank volume if only one tap works to fill this  part of the tank volume.\r\n" );
