A) 4 km/h |
B) 3 km/h |
C) 6 km/h |
D) 2 km/h |
D) 2 km/h |
Let velocity of the stream be x km/h.
Therefore, Velocity of the boat downstream
= (4 + x) km/h
and velocity of the boat upstream
= (4 - x) km/h
According to the question,
\( \Large 3 \left(4+x\right) = 9 \left(4-x\right) \)
=> \( \Large 12 + 3x = 36 - 9x \)
=> 12x = 24
Therefore, x =2 km/h
