A motorboat covers 25 km upstream and 39 km downstream by travelling at the same speed for 8 hours. On another occasion with the same speed, it covers 35 km upstream and 52 km downstream in 11 hours.What is the speed of the stream?
A. 5 km/hr
B. 4 km/hr
Feedback Each of the two periods of 8 hours and 11 hours consists of two component time periods, one upstream at a speed that is the difference in boat speed and stream speed, and the other downstream at a speed that is a sum of boat speed and stream speed
C. 3 km/hr
D. 2 km/hr
