Let the distance between two towns be= x
Speed of water = 3km/hr
Distance covered by the streamer in Downstream=x+3
Time taken to cover the distance in Downstream =15hr
Distance covered by the streamer in upstream=x-3
Time taken to cover the distance in upstream =20hr
Distance covered by the streamer in Downstream = Distance covered by the streamer in Upstream.
15(x+3) = 20(x-3)
15x+45 = 20x-60
20x-15x = - 60-45
5x = 105
x=105/5
x=21
So,the distance between two towns is 21km.
