- Question
- In a river, the ratio of the speed of stream and speed of a boat in still water is 2 : 5 Again, ratio of the speed of stream and speed of an another boat in still water is 3 : 4. What is the ratio of the speeds of the first boat to the second boat in still water?
Options- A. 10 : 7
- B. 15 : 8
- C. 4 : 3
- D. 5 : 4
- Correct Answer
- 15 : 8
ExplanationFor the first boat,
Speed of stream : Speed of boat = 2: 5
Let speed of stream be 2x km/h and speed of boat = 5x km/h
Similarly, for the second boat
Speed of stream be 3y km/h and speed of boat = 4y
In both of the conditions, river is same.
? 2x = 3y
? x = 3y/2
Thus, required ratio in speeds of boats in still water
= Thus, required ratio in speeds of boats in still water
= 5x : 4y = (5 x 3)y/2 : 4y = 15 : 8 - 1. The value of 47 / 10000 is?
