Step-by-step explanation:
Answer
Let the speed of the stream be skm/hr.
Speed of boat in still water =11km/hr
Speed of boat in upstream =(11−s)km/hr
Speed of boat in downstream =(11+s)km/hr
Distance =12km
Therefore
11−s

⇒s=±5
Since speed cannot be negative, we take s=5
Therefore Speed of stream is 5km/hr
