- (a) 2 hours
- (b) 3 hours
- (c) 2.4 hours
- (d) 4 hours

- (a) 5 km/hr
- (b) 7.5 km/hr
- (c) 10 km/hr
- (d) 15 km/hr
(3) If a boat takes 1.5 hours less to travel 40 miles downstream than to travel the same distance upstream, and the speed of the stream is 4 mph, find the speed of the boat in still water.
- (a) 20 mph
- (b) 16 mph
- (c) 12 mph

- (a) 8 km/hr
- (b) 10 km/hr
- (c) 12 km/hr
- (d) 15 km/hr
