Question

A boat can travel thrice the distance down the stream than upstream in the same time.if the speed of water current is 3km/hr find the speed of boat in still water

Answer 1

Boat can travel 3x downstream
current 3 km/hr

Answer 2

Concept Introduction: Upstream and downstream is a part of mathematics.

Given:

We have been Given: Speed of water is

$3 \: km {hr}^{ - 1}$

Boat can travel three times the distance in downstream and upstream.

To Find:

We have to Find: Speed of the boat.

Solution:

According to the problem, Speed of the boat is

$3 \times speed \: of \: water = 3 \times 3 = 9km {hr}^{ - 1}$

Final Answer: The Speed of the boat is

$9km {hr}^{ - 1}$
