Question

The ratio of the speed of boats ‘A’ and ‘B’ in still water is 8:9, respectively. The speed of the current is 25% of the speed of boat ‘A’ in still water. If boat ‘A’ takes 10 hours to travel 700 km downstream, then find the time taken by boat ‘B’ to travel 147 km upstream and 770 km downstream. (Note: Both the boats are rowing in the same stream.)

A 13 hours

B 10 hours

C 7 hours

D 9 hours

E None of these
