Answer:
It takes 1 minute 12 seconds to fill the bucket if both taps are turned on.
Step-by-step explanation:
- One tap fills the bucket in 2 minutes, thus fills 1/2 of the bucket in one minute.
- Other tap fills the bucket in 3 minutes, thus fills 1/3 of the bucket in one minute.
- Both together fill 1/2+1/3=5/6 of the bucket in one minute.
- If they can fill 5/6 of the bucket in 1 minute, they fill 1/6 of the bucket in 1/5 minute.
- They can fill the bucket (6/6) in 1+1/5 minute
- This is 1 minute 12 seconds
3 = X/2 + 2
1 = X/2
2 = X

The dimensions of the rectangle are 150 m and 75 m respectively.
Let x be the length of the rectangular area and y be the width of the rectangular area.
Its area A = xy
Given that its area is 11,000 m², xy = 11000 m² (1)
Also, since the bounding side of the building is 150 m long and the fencing is 300 m, the perimeter of the rectangular area is P = 150 m + 300 m = 450 m.
Also, the perimeter of the rectangular area is P = 2(x + y)
Since P = 450 m
2(x + y) = 450 m
x + y = 225 m (2)
Since the bounding side of the building represents one dimension of the rectangle, x = 150 m.
Substituting x into (2), we get the other dimension
x + y = 225
150 + y = 225
y = 225 m - 150 m
y = 75 m
So, the dimensions of the rectangle are 150 m and 75 m respectively.
