Practicing Success
Ajay can row his boat in still water at a speed of 11 km/hr. If the speed of the stream is 7 km/hr, how long will it take to cover a distance of 54 km downstream? |
4 hours 2 hours 2.5 hours 3 hours |
3 hours |
Speed of boat in downstream = Speed of boat in still water + Speed of stream = 11 + 7 = 18 km/hr Time taken to cover 54 km downstream = $\frac{distance}{Speed\;downstream}$ = $\frac{54}{18}$ = 3 hours |
