Rate of downstream = distance / time = a = 128 km /24 hours = 16/3km/hr Distance covered in upstream = 64km Time taken in upstream ... / 2 = (1/2)(16/3+4) km/hr = (1/2)(28/3)km/hr = 14/3km/hr.

A boat takes 27 hrs to travel a distance upstream and takes 9hrs to travel the same distance downstream. If the speed of the boat in still water is 12km/hr, then what is the velocity of the stream? A) 8km/hr B) 6km/hr C) 4km/hr D) None of these

Description : A boat takes 27 hrs to travel a distance upstream and takes 9hrs to travel the same distance downstream. If the speed of the boat in still water is 12km/hr, then what is the velocity of the stream? A) 8km/hr B) 6km/hr C) 4km/hr D) None of these

Last Answer : ANSWER : B  Explanation: Let the velocity of the stream be ‘ y’ km/hr Then the speed of the downstream = (12 + y)km/hr The speed of the upstream = (12 – y)km/hr 9 (12 + y) = 27 (12 – y) 108 + 9y = 324 – 27y 27y + 9y = 324 - 108 36y = 216 y = 6 km/hr
