Question
The speed of a motorboat in still water is 25 km/h and the speed of the stream is 5 km/h. The boat first goes 120 km downstream and then covers a certain distance upstream which is x% less than the distance travelled downstream. If the total time taken for the whole journey is 7 hours, then find ‘x’.
