    The time taken to fill the vat can be found using the least common multiple [LCM]. Given that the first pipe fills the tank in 66 hours and the second one empty the tank in 1010 hours, the time taken to fill the tank will be:

    LCM (66,1010)

    =66*1010

    =66,660 hours

    the answer is:

    66,660 hours
