Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

A boat can go 30 km upstream in 6 hours. What is the speed of the boat in still water if the speed of the current is 3 km/h?
  • Relative Speed – Understanding how the speed of a boat is affected by the current when moving upstream or downstream.
  • Speed Calculation – Calculating speed using the formula: Speed = Distance / Time.
  • Addition of Speeds – Adding the speed of the current to the speed of the boat to find the speed in still water.
