A boat can travel 24 km downstream in 4 hrs less time than it takes to travel the same distance upstream at a certain speed. If its speed is doubled and the speed of stream is tripled then it can travel 14/3 Km distance downstream in 1 hrs less time than it can upstream. Find the speed of stream. 1. 20/3 kmph 2. 10/3 kmph 3. 8 kmph 4. 16/3 kmph 5. 4 kmph A boat can travel 24 km downstream in 4 hrs less time than it takes to travel the same distance upstream at a certain speed.
