You can put this solution on YOUR website! The speed of the boat in still water is 10 Km/ Hr. If the boat goes 37.5 Km in upstream in 5 Hrs. Find the speed of the stream
***
let c=speed of stream
10-c=speed of boat upstream
travel time=distance/speed
5=37.5/(10-c)
50-5c=37.5
5c=12.5
c=2.5
speed of stream=2.5 km/hr
