Question
A boat goes 60 km upstream in 4 hours and 50 km
downstream in 2 hours, then the speed of the boat in still water isSolution
Let the speed of boat = x and the speed of the stream = y 60/(x-y) = 4 ⇒ x-y = 15 50/(x+y) = 2 ⇒ x+y = 25 From above x = 20 km/hr
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?
