A Woman’s downstream swimming rate is thrice of her upstream swimming rate. If she covers 12 km upstream in 2.5 hours, what distance she will cover in 5 hours downstream?
Correct Answer: 72 km
Explanation:
Rate of her upstream = 12/2.5 = 4.8 km/hr
Then, ATQ
Rate of downstream = 4.8 x 3 = 14.4 km/hr
Hence, the distance she covers downstream in 5 hrs = 14.4 x 5 = 72 kms.
