An empty swimming pool with a capacity of \(30,000\) liters is to be filled by hoses \(X\) and \(Y\) simultaneously. If the amount of water flowing from each hose is independent of the amount flowing from the other hose, how long, in hours, will it take to fill the pool?

1) Working alone, hose \(X\) would fill \(4\%\) of the pool per hour

2) Working alone, hose \(Y\) would fill \(3\%\) of the pool per hour

The OA is C
