let the speed of boat be x and speed of stream be y.
speed in downstream is X + Y while speed in upstream is x minus y. y is 3 km per hour.
that means
X + 3 km per hour + X - 3 km per hour = 91 km per 20 hours
2x = 9.1 km per hour.
X = 9.1 upon 2
X = 4. 55 km per hour.
speed in downstream is X + Y while speed in upstream is x minus y. y is 3 km per hour.
that means
X + 3 km per hour + X - 3 km per hour = 91 km per 20 hours
2x = 9.1 km per hour.
X = 9.1 upon 2
X = 4. 55 km per hour.
