The Speed Of A Motor Boat Is That Of The Current Of Water As 36:5. The Boat Goes Along With The Current In 5 Hours 10 Min, It Will Come Back In?

Answer»

LET the speed of motor boat be 36X KM/hr and that of current of WATER be 5x km/hr 

Speed downstream = (36x +5x)km/hr = 41x km/hr 

Speed upstream = (36 -5x)km/hr = 31x km/hr 

Distance covered downstream = (41x × 31/6)km 

Distance upstream = [1271x/6 × 1/31x]hrs 

= 41/6 hrs = 6hrs 50 min.
