If the sum of upstream and downstream speed is 18 km/hr
and the speed of the current is 4 km/hr. Then find time taken to cover 39 km in downward? Section 4Solution
Let the speed of boat in still water be x km/hr. According to the question, => x + 4 + x − 4 = 18 => x = 9 Downstream speed = 4 + 9 = 13 km/hr Required time = 39/13 = 3 hrs
