Question
A boat travels 160 km downstream in 8 hours. The difference
between its downstream speed and upstream speed is 2 km/h. What is the ratio of the boat's speed in still water to the speed of the stream?Solution
ATQ;
Downstream speed = 160 ÷ 8 = 20 km/h
Let boat speed in still water = b, stream speed = s
Downstream = b + s = 20
Upstream = b – s
Difference between downstream and upstream = (b + s) – (b – s) = 2s = 2
Hence s = 1
Then b = 20 – s = 19
Required ratio = 19 : 1 = 19 : 1
