Question
Speed of a boat in still water is 9 kmph and speed of
stream is 6 kmph. A man rows to a place at a distance of 30 km and come back to starting point. The total time taken by him is:Solution
Rate upstream = 9 – 6 = 3 kmph Rate downstream = 9 + 6 = 15 kmph Time taken to go upstream = 30/3 = 10 hr Time taken to go downstream = 30/15 = 2 hr Total time = 10 + 2 = 12 hrs

- 24.45% of 14.99% of 14999.78 + 159.80 = ?% of 1999.78 
- 15.78% of (287 + 302) + 12³ = ?% of 170 + 8 × 14 + 3² 
- ? = 65.78² ÷ (5.01⁵ + 7.02 × 33.33) + 33.33% of (290.88 × 23.09)
