    35 minutes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The total amount of water is 200 + 60 = 260 gallons. The two tanks will have equal amounts when each has half that, or 130 gallons.

    If the volume in tank 2 is increasing at 2 gallons per minute, it will increase by 70 gallons from 60 gallons to 130 gallons in 70/2 = 35 minutes.
