What time will be taken by a boat to cover a distance of 128 km along the stream, if speed of a boat in still water is 24 km/h and speed of stream is 8 km/h?
Correct Answer: 8 km/h
Explanation:
Downstream speed of boat = Speed of boat in still water + Speed of stream
= 24 + 8 = 32 km/h
∴ Required time = Distance/Speed downstream
= 128/32 = 4 km/h
