Question 1:
A man can row downstream at the rate of 24 Kmph and upstream at 7 Kmph.
Find the man’s rate in still water and rate of current?
A. 15.5 Kmph, 8.5 Kmph
Feedback Rate of still water = 1/2 (down stream + upstream)
= 1/2 (24 + 7) = 15.5 Kmph
rate of current = 1/2 (down stream - upstream)
= 1/2 (24 - 7) = 1/2 (17) = 8.5 kmph
B. 17 Kmph, 8.5 Kmph
C. 814 Kmph, 7 Kmph
D. None of these
