The speed of a boat in still water in 15 km/hr and the rate of current is 3 km/hr. The distance traveled downstream in 12 minutes is

The speed of a boat in still water in 15 km/hr and the rate of current is 3 km/hr. The distance traveled downstream in 12 minutes is Correct Answer 3.6 km

Speed downstream = (15 + 3) kmph = 18 kmph Distance travelled = (18 × 12/60) km = 3.6 km

What is the distance covered by boat N upstream in 5 hours? Which of the following option is sufficient alone to find the answer? A) Boat M is travelling downstream with 20% more downstream speed of boat N. Speed of boat M in still water is 10% more than the speed of boat N in still water. B) Boat M and Boat N are travelling downstream with speed 33 km/hr and 40 km/hr respectively and speed of boat M is still water is 2 times the speed of stream. C) Speed of boat M in still water is 6 km/hr less then speed of boat N in still water and speed of stream is 10 km/hr. D) Speed of stream is ½ times the speed of boat N in still water and downstream speed of boat M is 44 km/hr. E) Speed of stream is 10 km/hr and ratio of upstream speed of boat M and boat N is 3 : 2 respectively.
Questions below followed by two quantities. Find the relation between them. The table shows the distance travelled by five different boats upstream, the speed of the boat in still water and the time taken by them to cover the upstream distance. Boats Upstream distance Speed of boat Time taken  A  240 km  15 km/hr  20 hr  B  150 km  10 km/hr  25 hr  C  350 km  20 km/hr  50 hr  D  96 km  8 km/hr  16 hr  E  126 km  26 km/hr  9 hr   Quantity I: Boat B travel 238 km distance downstream in certain time. How much downstream distance boat D will cover at the same time? Quantity II: Boat E travel 722 km distance downstream in certain time. How much downstream distance boat A will cover at the same time?
Study the following questions carefully and answer accordingly. Quantity - I) If the time taken by a boat to cover the same distance in upstream is 2 hours more than downstream. The downstream speed of the boat and the speed of current is 16 kmph and 4 kmph then find the total distance travelled by the boat? Quantity - II) If the time taken by the boat in upstream and in downstream is 16 hours and 10 hours to cover the same distance. Then find the speed of boat in still water is how much percent of the speed of stream? Quantity – III) If the length of rectangle is twice of its breadth and 3 times more than the side of square and the difference between the side of square and length of rectangle is 15 cm then find the area of rectangle ?
In the following question, two statements are numbered as A and B. On solving these statements we get quantities A and B respectively. Solve for the both quantities and chose the correct option. Quantity A: The ratio of speed of boat to speed of stream is 2 : 1, If the boat travels 162 km and come back to starting point in 36 hour. What is the difference between the time taken by the boat to go upstream and the time taken by the boat to go downstream? Quantity B: The speed of the stream is 6 km/hr and the distance travelled by the boat is 60 km. If the boat covered half distance upstream with usual speed and other half with double its speed, then it takes 7.5 hours less time than usual time to go upstream. Find the total time taken by the boat to go upstream and downstream?
The speed of Boat P is 3 km/h more than the speed of Boat Q. The time taken by Boat Q to travel a distance of 30 km downstream is 30 minutes more than the time taken by Boat P to travel the same distance downstream. If the speed of the current is 1/3 of the speed of Boat Q, then what is the speed of Boat P?
The following questions have three statements. Study the question and the statements and decide which of the statement(s) is/are necessary to answer the question. Find the speed of the boat in still water. Statement I: The boat goes twice the distance downstream as it goes upstream in 30 minutes. Statement II: The boat goes 720 meters in 1 hour downstream. Statement III: Speed of the boat in still water is three times the speed of the current.
In the following question, three statements are given. You have to find which is/are necessary and sufficient to answer the following question. Find the speed of the boat in still water. Statement I: The boat goes twice the distance downstream in the same time, as it goes upstream. Statement II: Speed of the boat in still water is three times the speed of the current. Statement III: The boat goes 840 meters in 1 hour 10 minutes downstream.
Ratio between speed of boat P and Q in still water is 8∶6 and speed of current is 8 km/hr. Boat Q starts from A in the downstream,2 hours earlier than Boat P and it is found that Boat P is 32 km ahead of boat Q after 16 hours of its start. If boat P starts from point B in down steam at the same time and distance between A and B is 216 km, then find at what time boat P and Q meet each other.
In the following question, two statements are numbered as A and B. On solving these statements we get quantities A and B respectively. Solve for both quantities and chose the correct option. Quantity A: A man takes 11/9 times downstream time to row upstream keeping the distance same in both cases. What is the speed of boat (m/s) in still water if it takes 6 hours to travel 80 km in downstream? Quantity B: A boat running in upstream covers 20 km distance in 3 hours while covering the same distance in downstream it takes 2 hours. What is the speed of the boat in still water (m/s)?
A boat goes to 36 km downstream with the speed of the boat in still water 15 km/hr in still water and it goes to 28 km in upstream with the speed of 3/5 of the speed of the boat in still water. How much time was taken by the boat to cover the total distance, if the speed of the stream is 3 km/hr?
