A man can row at 5 kmph in still water. If the velocity of current is 1 kmph and it takes him 1 hour to row to a place and come back, how far is the place?

Answer» Speed downstream = (5 + 1) kmph = 6 kmph. Speed upstream = (5 - 1) kmph = 4 kmph. Let the required distance be x km. Then, x + x = 1 6 4 2x + 3x = 12 5x = 12 x = 2.4 km.
