When travelling downstream, a boat takes 5 hours to travel 300 km. If the speed of the stream is (2/5)th of downstream speed of the boat, then find the time taken by the boat to cover 360 km in still water.
Downstream speed of the boat = 300/5 = 60 km/hr Speed of the stream = 60 x (2/5) = 24 km/hr So, speed of the boat in still water = 60 – 24 = 36 km/hr Required time taken = 360/36 = 10 hours
