Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : 18 Given: Number of taps = 6 Time = 126 Formula used: M1 T1 = M2 T2 Where M and T represents the number of taps and time. Calculation: 6 × 126 = M2 × 42 ⇒ M2 = (6 × 126)/42 ⇒ M2 = 18 ∴ 18 taps are required to fill a container in 42 minutes. As the value of time is (1/3)rd of initial value or decreased by 200%, then the number of taps must also increase by 200% of the initial value |
