Question
The speed of a boat in still water is 22 km/h and the speed of the stream is 8 km/h. The boat first goes 60 km downstream and then travels upstream a distance which is x% less than the distance travelled downstream. If the total time taken for the entire trip is 5 hours, find the value of ‘x’.
