Question

a boat sails at a distance of 44km in 4 hours with the current. it takes 4hours 48 minutes longer to cover the same distance against the current. find the speed of boat in still water and the speed of the current.

Answer 1

1st of all it depends upon vel. of current of water

Answer 2

hi the answer is here dear
speed=distance÷time
the distance is 44km, and
the time is 8 hour and 48 minutes
then,
speed=44÷3/4+3
=11÷3+3
=3.66+3
=6.66
therefore the speed of the current is 6.66km per hour
