Working at constant rate, pump X pumped out half of the water in a flooded basement in 6 hours. The pump Y was started and the two pumps, working independently at their respective constant rates, pumped out rest of the water in 3 hours. How many hours would it have taken pump Y , operating alone at its own constant rate, to pump out all of the water that was pumped out of the basement?
