Their boat averaged 6km per hr.  The Rourke family took their outboard runabout for a trip on the lake for the same amount of time.  Their boat averaged 14 kilometers per hour.  The Rourke family traveled 20 km farther than the Clarke family.  How many hours did each family spend on their boat trip? </SPAN>\n" );
