the speed of a boat in still water is 8 km/hr .if it takes same time in going 20 km downstream as it takes in going 12 km upstream ,find the speed of water.
\n" ); document.write( "***
\n" ); document.write( "let c=speed of water
\n" ); document.write( "(8+c)=speed of boat downstream
\n" ); document.write( "(8-c)=speed of boat upstream
\n" ); document.write( "Travel time=distance/speed
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "\"20%2F%288%2Bc%29=12%2F%288-c%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "96+12c=160-20c
\n" ); document.write( "32c=64
\n" ); document.write( "c=2
\n" ); document.write( "speed of water=2 km/hr
\n" ); document.write( "
