If pipe $P$ can fill a tank in $p$ hours and pipe $Q$ can empty the same tank in $q$ hours (where $q > p$),and both pipes are opened simultaneously,in how many hours $(r)$ will the tank be filled?

Three pipes $A, B$ and $C$ can fill a cistern in $6$ $hrs$. After working together for $2$ $hrs$,$C$ is closed and $A$ and $B$ fill the remaining part of the cistern in $8$ $hrs$. Find the time (in $hrs$) in which the cistern can be filled by pipe $C$ alone.

In what time would a cistern be filled by three pipes whose diameters are $1 \text{ cm}$,$1 \frac{1}{3} \text{ cm}$,and $2 \text{ cm}$,running together,when the largest alone will fill it in $61 \text{ minutes}$,the amount of water flowing in by each pipe being proportional to the square of its diameter? (in $\text{minutes}$)

$A$ tank can be filled with water by two pipes $A$ and $B$ together in $36$ minutes. If the pipe $B$ was closed after $30$ minutes,the tank is filled in $40$ minutes. The pipe $B$ can alone fill the tank in?

$A$ cistern has two pipes. One can fill it in $8 \, h$ and the other can empty it in $5 \, h$. In how many $hours$ will the cistern be emptied if both the pipes are opened together when $\frac{3}{4}$ of the cistern is already full of water?

$A$ pipe can empty a cistern in $27$ $hours$. Find the time (in $hours$) in which $\frac{2}{3}$ part of the cistern will be emptied?
