Answer:

Required distance is 182 km.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of the man in still water

 = 10 \: km. {hr}^{ - 1}

Speed of the current

 = 3 \: km. {hr}^{ - 1}

Speed of the man along the current

 = (10 + 3 )\: km. {hr}^{ - 1}  =  = 13\: km. {hr}^{ - 1}

Speed of the man against the current

 = (10  - 3)\: km. {hr}^{ - 1}  =  = 7 \: km. {hr}^{ - 1}

Given,

He takes 12 hours more in upstream than in the downstream

Ley, The distance is x km

 \frac{x}{7}  -  \frac{x}{13}  = 12 \\ x = 182 \: km
