Question 887093: A pipe can fill a container with water in 3 hours. However, if water is drawn from it at the same time at the rate of 4 cubic feet per hour it requires 5 hours to fill it. At what rate is the pipe delivering water? Answer by josgarithmetic(39799) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The fill-pipe works at some cubic feet per hour, or v cubic feet per 3 hours.
We do not know the container capacity and we do not know the actual rate for the fill pipe.
