The velocity of boat = 12Km/hr.
During moving against water resultant velocity be = V current - V boat
=12/3
=4 Km/hr.
VCurrent-V boat = 4
V current-12= 4
V current=16 km/hr.
During moving against water resultant velocity be = V current - V boat
=12/3
=4 Km/hr.
VCurrent-V boat = 4
V current-12= 4
V current=16 km/hr.

Let the speed of the current = x km/h
According to the question,
= 12 - 4 = x = 8 km/h
DistanceTime=121=12km/h
