Question 270356
if a boat travels 8mph how far can it go in one hour in clam water
<pre>
It depends on how many clams are in the water!  

Yes, I know that was a typo. You meant "calm" not "clam"
but it was a funny typo anyway! 

Seriously though, you did not state the rate of the current
of the water.  Wasn't that given?

If a boat travels 8mph then it can go 8 miles in one hour.
I don't think that's what you meant.  Read the problem again
and copy it exactly.
