Answer:
the speed of a steamer is 27 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed of steamer be x km/h
speed of boat in downstream=(x+3) km/h
speed of boat in upstream=( x-3) km/h
- distance travelled in downstream=( x+3)×4= 4x +12
- distance travelled in upstream=(x-3) ×5= 5x - 15
A/q,
4x +12= 5x -15
- 4x-5x = -15-12
- - x = -27
- x = 27 km/h
Hence,
the speed of a steamer in still water is 27 kilometre per hour
