A sample question from this test
A boat's speed in still water is 15 km/h and the speed of the stream is 7 km/h. How many hours will it take to cover 64 km upstream?
- 11
- 8
- 10
- 13
Answer: B. 8. Upstream speed = 15 − 7 = 8 km/h. Time = 64 ÷ 8 = 8 hours.
How to approach this test
Downstream speed is boat plus stream and upstream is boat minus stream; the boat speed is half the sum of the two and the stream speed half their difference.
This set mixes straightforward questions with a few that need an extra step, so it works well as a checkpoint once the basics are comfortable.
