Two pipes $A$ and $B$ are attached to an empty water tank. Pipe $A$ fills the tank while pipe $B$ drains it. If pipe $A$ is opened at $2$ pm and pipe $B$ is opened at $3$ pm , then the tank becomes full at $10 \mathrm{pm}$. Instead, if pipe $A$ is opened at $2 \mathrm{pm}$ and pipe $B$ is opened at $4 \mathrm{pm}$, then the tank becomes full at $6 \mathrm{pm}$. If pipe $B$ is not opened at all, then the time, in minutes, taken to fill the tank is

A water tank has inlets of two types $A$ and $B$. All inlets of type $A$ when open, bring in water at the same rate. All inlets of type $B$, when open, bring in water at the same rate. The empty tank is completely filled in $30$ minutes if $10$ inlets of type $A$ and $45$ inlets of type $B$ are open, and in $1$ hour if $8$ inlets of type $A$ and $18$ inlets of type $B$ are open. In how many minutes will the empty tank get completely filled if $7$ inlets of type $A$ and $27$ inlets of type $B$ are open?
