Some question: Three pipes A, B and C can fill a tank from empty to full in 30 minutes, 20 minutes and 10 minutes respectively. When the tank is empty, all the three pipes are opened. A, B and C discharge chemical solutions P, Q and R respectively. What is the proportion of solution R in the liquid in the tank after 3 minutes?\nOptions:\n(A) 6/19\n(B) 6/11\n(C) 6/12\n(D) 6/10\n(E) 6/38
Some stream of consciousness:

Part filled by (A + B + C) in 3 minutes = 3(1/30 + 1/20 + 1/10) = 11/20\nPart filled by C in 3 minutes = 3/10\nRequired ratio = 3/10 * 20/11 = 6/11 The answer: (B).
