  • The speed of a boat downstream is 15 km/hr and the speed of the stream is 1.
Question 1:
The speed of a boat downstream is 15 km/hr and the speed of the stream is 1.5 km/hr.
The speed of the boat upstream is?
A. 13.5 km/hr
B. 16.5 km/hr
C. 12 km/hr
Feedback Let the speed of boat in still water be x km/hr Then, x + 1.5 = 15
x = 13.5
Speed upstream = (13.5 - 1.5) km/hr = 12 km/hr
D. 8.25 km/hr
