Question

Ratio of still water speeds of three boats is 3:4:5. The first boat travels downstream, the second and third boats travel upstream. They travel in streams of speed ratio 2:2:3 so that the ratio of effective speed of the boats is 5:2:2. If the effective speed of the first boat is 15 km/hr more than the effective speed of the third boat, what is the sum of their still water speeds?

A 65 km/hr
B 66 km/hr
C 60 km/hr
D 70 km/hr
E 75 km/hr
