      Question

      A boat sails 150 km in downstream direction in 5 hours.

      If the upstream speed is one-third of its downstream speed, calculate the time it will take to cover 90 km against the current.
      A 12 hrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 18 hrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 5 hrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 9 hrs Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Downstream speed of the boat = 150 / 5 = 30 km/h

      Therefore, upstream speed of the boat = 30 / 3 = 10 km/h

      Required time taken = 90 / 10 = 9 hours
