  • question_answer
    Two boats A and 8 start towards each other from two places, 108 km apart. Speeds of the boats A and B in still water are 12 km/h and 15 km/h respectively. If A proceeds down and B up the stream, they will meet after

    A)  4.5 h   

    B)  4 h 

    C)  5.4 h               

    D)  6 h

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Let the speed of the stream be x km/h and both the boats meet after t h. According to the question, \[(12+x)t+(15-x)t=108\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[12t+15t=108\Rightarrow 27t=108\] \[\therefore \]      \[t=\frac{108}{27}=4\,\,h\]
