      Question

      A boat covers a distance of 108 km downstream in 3

      hours. If the ratio of upstream speed to downstream speed of the boat is 5:9, then find the distance travelled by the boat in upstream in 8 hours.
      A 120 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 160 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 125 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 130 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, Let the upstream and downstream speed of the boat be '5x' km/hr and '9x' km/hr, respectively. ATQ, 9x = (108/3) So, 'x' = 4 So, upstream speed of the boat = 5x = 5 Γ— 4 = 20 km/hr Required distance = 20 Γ— 8 = 160 km
