More Boats and streams Questions

Speed of a boat in still water is 12 kmph and speed of stream is 6 kmph. A man rows to a place at a distance of 72 km and come back to starting point. The total time taken by him is:
A man can row at 4 kmph in still water. If the velocity of current is 3 kmph and it takes him 8 hour to row to a place and come back, how far is the place?
A boat goes 60 km in upstream in 5 hours and takes 3 hours to complete a distance of 12 km in downstream. Find the speed of boat in still water.
A man can row 32 km/hr in still water. It takes him thrice as long to row up as to row down the river. Find the rate of the current.
A boat makes a journey from point P to point Q and return back in 6 hr 40 min. One way it travels with the stream and on the return it travel against the stream. Prdouct of speed in downstream and upstream is 216. If the speed of the stream increase by 2 km/hr, the return journey takes 7 hr 12 min. What is the speed of the boat in still water? The distance between P and Q is 48 km.
The speed of a boat in still water is 8 km/hr and speed of current is 3 km/hr. If time taken to cover a certain distance upstream is 11 hours, then how long will the boat take to cover the same distance downstream?
Boat ‘A’ can cover 120 km in still water in 10 hours. In still water, if the ratio of the speed of boat ‘A’ to that of ‘B’ is 4:5 and the speed of stream is 2 km/hr then find the time taken by boat ‘B’ to cover the 170 km in downstream.
A boat takes 7 hours to cover 245 km upstream and 9 hours to cover 477 km downstream. Find the time taken by the boat to cover 410 km upstream and 495 km downstream if speed of boat in still water is increased by 4 km/h and speed of stream is decreased by 2 km/h.
A boat goes 50 km in upstream in 5 hours and takes 3 hours to complete a distance of 18 km in downstream. Find the speed of boat in still water.
Find the total distance covered by boat in still water in 8 hours if the speed of boat in upstream and in downstream is 10 km/h and 15 km/h respectively?
