Question : A boat can cover 120 km upstream and back in a total of 30 hours, and 25 km upstream and 40 km downstream in a total of 7 hours. How much distance will the boat cover in 16 hours in still water?
Option 1: 200 km
Option 2: 180 km
Option 3: 175 km
Option 4: 225 km
Correct Answer: 200 km
Solution : Let the speed of the boat in still water be $x$ km/hr and the speed of the current be $y$ km/hr. Speed downstream = $x + y$ Speed upstream = $x - y$ Now, $\text{Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}$ $\frac{120}{x + y} + \frac{120}{x - y}
