Consider a water pipe that branches into two smaller pipes. If the flow of water is 10 L/min in the main pipe and 4 L/min in one of the branches, how much water per minute flows in the other branch?

The water flows 6 liters per minute in the other branch of pipe.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Flow of water in main pipe = 10L/min

Flow of water in one branch = 4L/min

Flow of water in other branch = x

Flow of water in main pipe = Flow in one branch + Flow in other branch

[tex]10=4+x\\10-4=x\\6=x\\x=6[/tex]

The water flows 6 liters per minute in the other branch of pipe.
