Q.  A boat goes 6 km in an hour in still water. It takes thrice as much time in covering the same distance against the current. Speed of the current is_______?

a. 2 km/hr
b. 3km/hr
c. 4km/hr
d. 5 km/hr


ANSWER: See Answer
 
Speed in still water = 6 km/hr

Speed against the current = 6/3 km/hr = 2 km/hr

Let the speed of the current be x km/hr

6-x = 2 => x =4 km/hr
