Maths Puzzle
A man can row at 6 km/h in still water and at 4 km/h upstream. How long will the man take to go to a place
1 km downstream and return?
a) 36 min b) 24 min c) 12 min d) 18min
Read Solution (Total 4)
-
- speed for downstream = 6+4=10 kmph
Time taken to go 1 km downstream = 1/10 hrs =6 mins
speed for upstream = 6-4=2 kmph
Time taken to go 1 km upstream = 1/2 hrs =30 mins
so total time = 6+30= 36 mins - 13 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(18)
