    Answer:

    \frac{1}{4}\:\mathrm{of\:an\:hour\: or\:}15\:\mathrm{minutes}

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If the faucet fills \frac{1}{3} of the water cooler in \frac{1}{12} of an hour, then it will take the faucet \frac{1}{\frac{1}{3}}\cdot \frac{1}{12}=3\cdot\frac{1}{12}=\fbox{$\frac{1}{4}$} of an hour to fill the faucet completely.
