      A boat goes 60 km in upstream in 5 hours and takes 3

      hours to complete a distance of 12 km in downstream. Find the speed of boat in still water.

      D 6 km/hr Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 9 km/hr Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Speed of boat in still water = (D + U)/2 Upstream speed (U) = 60/5 = 12 km/hr Downstream speed (D) = 12/3 = 4 km/hr Speed of boat in still water = (12 + 4)/2 = 16/2 = 8 km/hr
