Jim can fill a pool carring buckets of water in 30 minutes Sue can do the same job in 45 minutes Tony can do the same job in 90 minutes how quickly can all three fill the pool together?
In 15 minutes. Jim can fill 1/2 of the pool in 15 minutes, Sue can fill 1/3, and Tony can fill 1/6 of the pool in 15 minutes. Thus, together they can fill the pool in 15 minutes.
Jim can fill a pool carrying buckets of water in 30 minutes sue can do the same job in 45 minutes tony can all three fill the pool together?
Since you didn't write the Tony's time, let find for how long Jim and Sue can fill the pool together. Jim can fill 1/2 of the pool in 15 minutes. Sue can fill 1/3 of the pool in 15 minutes. Together can fill 5/6 of the pool in 15 minutes (1/2 + 1/3). In how many minutes (let's say x minutes) they will fill 1/6 of the pool? Since it is left a small piece of the pool to fill out, it will take a few minutes to fill it. So we can form a proportion such as: (5/6)/(1/6) = 15/x 5/1 = 15/x cross multiply 5x = 15 divide both sides by 5 x = 3 It will take 3 minutes to fill 1/6 of the pool. So that together they will fill the pool in 18 minutes (15 + 3).

Jamil can fill a pool carrying bucket of water in 30 minutes ali can do the same job in 45 minutes tariq can do the same job in 60 minutes how quickly can all three fill the pool together?
Jamil fills 1/30 of the pool in one minute. Ali fills 1/45 of the pool in one minute. Tariq fills 1/60 of the pool in one minute. So, together they fill 1/30 + 1/45 +1/60 = 6/180 + 4/180 +3/180 = 13/180 of the pool in one minute. Therefore, it takes them 180/13 minutes to fill th pool together. That is, 13.85 minutes.

One pump can fill a pool in ten minutes another can fill the pool in 15 minutes how long to fill the pool if both pumps are running?
The first pump fills (1/10th) of the pool in 1 minute.The second pump fills (1/15th) of the pool in 1 minute.With both running, they fill(1/10 + 1/15) = (3/30 + 2/30) = 5/30 = 1/6th of the pool in 1 minute.They have to run for [ 1 / (1/6) ]= 6 minutes in order to fill the pool.
If it takes chis 30 minutes to fill the pool and Sarah 45 minutes to fill the pool and Billy 90 minutes to fill the pool how long will it take all 3 to fill the pool?
chis fills (1/30) of the pool every minute.Sarah fills (1/45) of the pool every minute.Billy fills (1/90) of the pool every minute.Working together, they fill [ (1/30) + (1/45) + (1/90) ] every minute.(1/30) + (1/45) + (1/90) = (3/90) + (2/90) + (1/90) = (6/90) = 1/15Together, they fill (1/15th) every minute, so it takes 15 minutes to fill it completely.
