Question 1208262: Hi
A metal block of volume 240cm^3 is placed in a tank of a square base and a height of 14cm.
A tap takes 4 minutes to fill the tank with just enough water to cover the metal block.
The volume of the metal block and the water in the tank is 2/7 of the tanks capacity.
How long will the tap take to completely fill the tank with water.

Today, I see significant flow of crippled "Math problems" at this forum.
My impression is that there is a person on the opposite end of the Internet,
who intently cripples every Math problem, before to post it to the forum.
Or, may be, not one person, but an entire team.
