$A$ boat goes $24 \, km$ upstream and $28 \, km$ downstream in $6 \, hours$. It goes $30 \, km$ upstream and $21 \, km$ downstream in $6 \, hours$ and $30 \, minutes$. The speed of the boat in still water is $...... \, km/hr$.

The speed of a boat in still water is $4 \, km/h$ and the speed of the current is $2 \, km/h$. If the time taken to reach a certain distance upstream is $9 \, hours$,find the time it will take to go the same distance downstream (in $hrs$).
