A tank can be filled in 30 minutes. There is a leakage which can empty the tank in 90 minutes. Therefore, the tank will be filled in
As per the given data,
Part of the tank filled in one min = 1/30
Part of the tank leakage in one min = 1/90
⇒ Part of the tank in one min due to leakage = 1/30 – 1/90 = 2/90 = 1/45
∴ Tank can be filled in 45 minutes.
