A cylindrical overhead tank is filled by two pumps-P1 and P2. P1 can fill the tank in 8 h while P2 can fill the tank in 12 h. There is a pipe P3 which can empty the tank in 8 hours. Both the pumps are opened simultaneously. The supervisor of the tank, before going out on a work, sets a timer to open P3 when the tank is half filled so that tank is exactly filled up by the time he is back. Due to technical fault P3 opens when the tank is one third filled. If the supervisor comes back as per the plan what per cent of the tank is still empty?
