$A$ boat goes $2\, km$ upstream and $3\, km$ downstream in $20$ minutes. It goes $7\, km$ upstream and $2\, km$ downstream in $53$ minutes. What is the speed (in $km/hr$) of the boat in still water?

$A$ boat running downstream covers a distance of $16\, km$ in $2\, hours,$ while for covering the same distance upstream,it takes $4\, hours.$ What is the speed of the boat in still water? (in $km/hr$)

Twice the speed downstream is equal to thrice the speed upstream. The ratio of the speed in still water to the speed of the current is:

Two boats $A$ and $B$ start towards each other from two places,$108 \text{ km}$ apart. The speeds of boats $A$ and $B$ in still water are $12 \text{ km/h}$ and $15 \text{ km/h}$,respectively. If $A$ proceeds down the stream and $B$ proceeds up the stream,they will meet after .......... $\text{h}$.

Speed of a man is $12 \text{ km/h}$ in still water. If the rate of current is $4 \text{ km/h}$,then the effective speed of the man upstream is ......... $\text{km/h}$.
