A boat goes at 14 kmph along the stream and 8 kmph against the stream. The speed of the boat (in kmph) in still water is :
-
- 12 kmph
- 11 kmph
- 10 kmph
- 8 kmph
- 12 kmph
Correct Option: B
Given in question , Rate downstream = 14 kmph
Rate upstream = 8 kmph
Speed of boat in still water = | (Rate downstream + Rate upstream) | |
2 |
Speed of boat in still water = | (14 + 8) = 11 kmph | |
