A boats man can row in still water at speed of 7 km/hr. It takes 6 hours more to travel the same distance in upstream than in downstream if the speed of the river is 3 km/hr. what is the distance between the two destinations?

Time & Distance Mcqs 22/12/2023

A. 20 km
B. 40 km
C. 30 km
D. 10 km

x = 7 km/hr ; y = 3 km/hr
Ds = 10 km/hr ; Us = 4 km/hr
Distance (d) is same. Therefore, if time taken for downstream is t hours, the time for upstream is (t + 6) hours.
10*t = 4*(t + 6)
6t = 24 ; t = 4 hours
d = 10*4 = 40 km
