Answer 2

The major east flowing rivers in South Africa are River Limpopo, River Breede, and River Great Kei.  

Explanation:

River Limpopo is a major river basin (second largest in Africa) which rises from South Africa and shares waters with its riparian countries like Botswana, Mozambique, and Zimbabwe. This is also called the Krocodile River.  It flows towards east and drains into the Indian Ocean.

River Breede rises in the Western Cape province in South Africa. From there it flows east and drains into the Indian Ocean. This is a major river which provides water for many dams and irrigation schemes like the Brandvlei Dam.

The Great Kei River flows in the Eastern Cape province in South Africa and drains in the Indian Ocean in the east. The Great Kei is the confluence of the White Kei and Black Kei rivers.
