Question 805213: A 3500 L tank containing 1000 L of water is being filled at a rate of 120 L per minute from a full 5800 L tank. How long will it be before the two tanks have the same amount of water? Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 1000+120h=5800-120h
h = 20
in 20 hours they will both have 3400 L
adding 2400 L to one and removing 2400 L from the other
