letr time taken by smaller tap be x time taken by larger tap= x-9 1/x+1/x-9=1/6 x-9+x/x^2-9x =1/6 2x-9/x^2-9x = 1/6 6(2x-9)= x^2-9x 12x-54 = x^2-9x x^2-9x-12x+54 = 0 x^2-21x+54=0 x^2-18x-3x+54=0 x(x-18)-3(x-18)=0 (x-18)(x-3)=0 x=18 or 3 x=18 time taken by smaller tap =18 hrs. time taken by larger tap= 9 hrs.
