Answer:
Let, speed of Ritu in still water be x km/hr
and speed of current be y km/hr
Then speed downstream =(x+y) km/hr
speed upstream =(x−y) km/hr
we know, Time=
Speed
Distance
Then
x+y
20
=2 and
x−y
4
=2
⇒x+y=10 ...(1)
& x−y=2 ...(2)
adding both we get, 2x=12⇒x=6
Thus using (1) y=10−6=4
Hence the speed of Ritu in still water is 6 km/hr and the speed of the current is 4 km/hr.

Step-by-step explanation:
Let the speed of man is u and that of current is v
Downstream speed will be u+v
Upstream speed will be u−v
He travels 30 km downstream in 5 hrs
So, downstream speed is 530=6 km/hr
Similarly upstream speed will be 518=3.6 km/hr
So, u+v=6
⇒u−v=3.6
Subtracting both the equations;
⇒2v=2.4
⇒v=1.2 km/hr
