The ratio of the speeds of a motor boat and that of the current of water is 26:4. The boat goes certain distance against the current in 6 hrs. The time taken by the boat to come back is____

The speed of water current is half the speed of a motor boat. The motor boat travels 15 km downstream in 1 hour. Then the time taken to return to the starting point is:

In a 200 m race, Rohan completes the race in 8 seconds and Vivan completes the race in 10 seconds. By how much distance Rohan beats Vivan?

It is currently 9:40 AM. What will be the time in next 610 hours?

Ravi's speed of rowing in still water is 6 km/hr. He rows between two points in a river and return to the same starting point. He took 30 minutes more to cover the distance upstream than downstream. If the speed of the stream is 3 km/hr, then the distance between the two points is:

In 900 meters race, Ram gives Shyam a start of 150 meters and defeats him by 50 seconds. If the speed of Ram is 4.5 m/sec, then speed of Shyam is

A man rows a boat such that it covers a distance upstream in twice the time taken by him to cover the same distance downstream. If the speed of stream is 5 km/h, the speed of boat in still water is:

In a 500 metres race, the ratio of speeds of two participants Meena and Kamal is 4:5 respectively. If Meena has a start of 200 metres, find the distance by which Meena wins.

A runs 9 times slower than B. If B gives A a start of 80 meters, how far must be the wining post on the tracks so that A and B reach there at the same time?

A swimmer whose speed in swimming pool is 5 km/h, swims between two points in a river and returns back to starting point. He took 20 minutes more to cover the distance upstream than to cover downstream. If the speed of stream is 2 km/h, then the distance between two points is

A boat covers a distance 24 km upstream and returns to the same point in a total of 4 hours. If the speed of boat in downstream is twice its speed in upstream, then the speed of boat in upstream is:

A boat covers a distance of 51 km downstream in 3 hours and takes $7\frac{2}{7}$ hours to cover the same distance upstream. If the boat's speed in still water is 12 km/hrs, then the speed of the stream is:

Two runners A and B complete a 150 meters race in 24 seconds and 36 seconds respectively. By how many meters will A defeat B?

A man rows 24 km upstream in 6 hours and 36 km downstream in 6 hours each time, then the speed of the boat in the still water is

A boat can row at the speed of 16 km/hr in still water. If the river is flowing at 8 km/hr, and it takes 8 hours for a round trip, then the distance between the two places is:

In a 500 m race, the ratio of speeds of two participants, A and B, is 4:5 respectively. If A has a start of 180 m, then the distance by which A wins is

Ram can row a boat in still water at the rate of 6 km/hr. He finds that it takes him twice as long to row upstream of a river as to row downstream of the same river, then the speed of the current of the river is

A steamer can row at the speed of 16km/hr in still water. If the river is flowing at 8 km/hr and it takes 12 hours for a round trip, then the distance between the two places is:

In a 700 m race, the ratio of speeds of two participants A and B is 5:6. If A has a start of 150 m, then the distance by which A wins the race is:

A boat covers 32 km upstream and 36 km downstream in 7 hours. Also, it covers 40 km upstream and 48 km downstream in 9 hours. The speed of the boat in still water is:

In a 500 m race, the ratio of speeds of two participants, A and B, is 4:5 respectively. If A has a start of 180 m, then the distance by which A wins is:

In a 10 km race, A, B and C each run at uniform speed, get the first, second and third position respectively. If A beats B by 1 km and B beats C by 1 km, then, by how much distance A beat C?

A fisherman is rowing a boat. He takes 6 hours to row 48 km upstream whereas he takes 3 hours to go to the same distance downstream.

Based on the above information, which of the following are correct?

(A) His speed of rowing in still water is 10 km/hour.

(B) The speed of the stream is 3 km/hour.

(C) The average speed of the fisherman is 32/3 km/hour.

(D) The speed of the stream is 4 km/hour.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

A boat takes 1 hour 30 minutes less to travel 36 km downstream than to travel the same distance upstream. If the speed of the boat in still water is 10 km/hr, then the speed of the stream is:

A runs 3 times as fast as B. If A gives B a start of 30 meters, how far must the goal on the race course be so that A and B reach it at the same time?
