Q:

If the boat goes 7 kms upstream in 42 min and speed of the stream is 3 kmph, then the speed of the boat in still water ?

A) 14 kmph B) 13 kmph
C) 12 kmph D) 11 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 13 kmph

Explanation:

Given that, upstream distance = 7 kms

Upstream speed = 7/42 x 60 = 10 kms

Speed of the stream = 3 kmph

Let speed in still water = M kmph, then

Upstream speed = M - 3 = 10

=> M = 13 kmph.
