      Question

      A man can swim downstream in 12 minutes covering a

      distance of 600 meters. He takes 15 minutes to cover the same distance upstream. Find the speed of the stream in meters per minutes.
      A 2 m/min Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 1.5 m/min Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 3 m/min Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 3.75 m/min Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 5 m/min Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Downstream speed = 600 Γ· 12 = 50 m/min. Upstream speed = 600 Γ· 15 = 40 m/min. Speed of stream = (Downstream speed - Upstream speed) Γ· 2 = (50 - 40) Γ· 2 = 10 Γ· 2 = 5 m/min. Correct Option: e) 5 m/min
