Answer:

3:45 P.M.

Explanation:

After I fill the tank, the content settles for 14 hours before the liquid is removed.

So, the liquid is removed after content settlement i.e. after 14 hours of filling up the tank.

If I fill the tank at 1:45 A.M. then after 14 hours i.e. at 3: 45 P.M I will remove the liquid.

If we separate the 14 hours into (12 hours + 2 hours), then by adding 12 hours the time will remain the same, only the A.M. will change to P.M i.e. 1: 45 P.M. and then by adding 2 hours more the time will be 3:45 P.M. (Answer)
