    Explanation

    Let, Distance = x Given Condition - Time taken in upstream _ Time taken downstream = Total time => x/u-v + x/u+v = 3 => x/9-3 + x/9+3 = 3 [ u=9km/hr, v=3km/hr ] => x/6 + x/12 =3 => 2x+x/12 = 3 => 3x/12 = 3 => x/4 = 3 ∴ x = 12 km

If the speed of the stream is 4 km/hr, find the time taken by the boat to go 68 km downstream.In one hour, a boat goes 11 km/hr along the stream and 5 km/hr against the stream. The speed of the boat in still water (in km/hr) is:The speed of a boat in still water in 15 km/hr and the rate of current is 3 km/hr. The distance travelled downstream in 12 minutes is:A boatman goes 2 km against the current of the stream in 1 hour and goes 1 km along the current in 10 minutes. How long will it take to go 5 km in stationary water?A man's speed with the current is 15 km/hr and the speed of the current is 2.5 km/hr. The man's speed against the current is:If a boat goes 7 km upstream in 42 minutes and the speed of the stream is 3 kmph, then the speed of the boat in still water is: (যদি একটি নৌকা স্রোতের প্রতিকূলে 42 মিনিটে 7 কি. মি. যায় এবং স্রোতের গতি 3 কি. মি./ঘন্টা হয়, তাহলে স্থির পানিতে নৌকার বেগ কত?)The ages of Samina and Suhana are in the ratio of 7:3 respectively.
