A man rows to a place 48 km distant and come back in 14 hours. He finds that he can row 4 km with the stream in the same time as 3 km against the stream. The rate of the stream is:

We have the important relation, More work, More time (days)
? A piece of work can be done in 6 days.
? Three times of work of same type can be done in 6 x 3
= 18 days

? = 750.0003 ÷ 19.999
? ? ? 750 ÷ 20
? ? ? 375 ? 38

Subtract 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 from successive numbers. So 0 is wrong.

NA

Each previous number is multiplied by 2.

? 8 m shadow means original height = 12 m
? 1 m shadow means original height = 12/8 m
? 100 m shadow means original height = (12/8) x 100 m
= (6/4) x 100 = 6 x 25 = 150 m

Let 8% of 96 = y of 1/25
? (8 x 96)/100 = y/25
? y = (8 x 96 x 25)/100 = 192

Since the principal is not given, so data is inadequate.
