Question
If a river is flowing at a rate of 6 km/hr and a boat's
speed in still water is 150% higher than the river's speed, and the boat travels 'd' kilometers downstream in 8 hours, what is the amount of time (in hours) required for the boat to cover (d+30) km upstream?Solution
Speed of a boat in still water = (250/100) × 6 = 15 km/hr According to the question, => d/(15 + 6) = 8 => d = 168 Required time = (168 + 30)/(15 – 6) = 22 hrs
