A sample question from this test
A pipe fills a tank of 1920 litres in 8 hours. How long will it take to fill 960 litres at the same rate (in hours)?
- 5
- 7
- 9
- 4
Answer: D. 4. Half the tank takes half the time: 8 ÷ 2 = 4 hours.
How to approach this test
Treat filling pipes as positive rates and emptying pipes or leaks as negative rates, then divide the capacity by the net rate.
