 Boat and Streams Questions for SBI Clerk Prelims 2020-21

Boat and Streams – Answer and Explanation

Let, speed of the boat in still water = x km/h 35/x = 3.5

And speed of the stream = y Km/h x = 10

x + y + x – y = 36 Required sum = 8 * 10 = 80 kmph

=> 2x = 36 Q3) Answer: B

=> x = 36/2 Speed of the boat in still water = (28 + 36)/2 = 32 kmph

=> x = 18 Km/h Required time = 224/32 = 7 h

Now, Q4) Answer: D

4y + 2 = 18 Downstream speed of boat in River = 12 + 2 = 14

=> 4y = 18 – 2 km/hr

=> 4y = 16 Upstream speed of boat in River = 12 – 2 = 10 km/hr

=> y = 16/4 So required time for the fisherman to return = 28/14 +

=> y = 4 Km/h 28/10

Required time = 132/(18 + 4) + 56/(18 – 4) = 2 + 2.8

= 132/22 + 56/14 = 4.8 hrs

=6+4 Q5) Answer a

= 10 hours Upstream speed=boat speed - stream speed=10

Q2) Answer: D Downstream speed=boat speed + stream speed=20

The ratio of speed of stream and boat = 1: 7 (x, 7x) 2*Speed of boat=30

 Boat and Streams Questions for SBI Clerk Prelims 2020-21
Speed of boat=30/2=15 2x=30

Speed of stream=20-15=5 So, x=15

Q6) Answer e Speed of boat is 15 km/hr

Let the distance is D km Q8) Answer c

Speed of boat is x km/hr Let the downstream speed is 2x and upstream speed is

So according to the question, x

D/x-4=6 →(1) and D/x+4=4 →(2) So speed of boat is=2x+x/2=3x/2=

Dividing eq 1 from eq 2 Speed of stream=2x-x/2=x/2

(x+4)/(x-4)=6/4=3/2 So required ratio=3x/2:x/2=3:1

Or,x=20 Q9) Answer b

D=16*6=96km Upstream speed =75/3=25

Q7) Answer d Downstream speed=60/1.5=40

Speed of boat is x Speed of boat=(40+25)/2=65/2=32.5km/hr

Speed of stream is y Q10) Answer a

So according to the question, Downstream speed =20+5=25km/hr

20/(x-y)=2 Upstream speed=20-5=15km/hr

Or,x-y=10 →(1) Time taken to go 100 km and return back

20/(x+y)=1 is=100/25+100/15=4+6.6=10.6

Or, x+y=20 →(2) Q11) Answer e

From 1 and 2 we get Downstream speed =12+4=16km/hr

 Boat and Streams Questions for SBI Clerk Prelims 2020-21
Upstream speed=12-4=8km/hr Q15) Answer a

Time taken to go 84 km and return back Upstream speed=10-3=7 km/hr

is=84/16+84/8=5.25+10.5=15.75 Time taken to go 49 km upstream is=49/7= 7 hour

Q12) Answer d Q16) Answer e

Let total distance is D Upstream speed=boat speed –speed of

Downstream speed =8+4=12 km/hr stream=12/(36/60)=20 km/hr

Upstream speed=8-4=4km/hr Speed of stream=24-20=4km/hr

Average velocity=2D/{(D/12)+(D/4)}=2*12/4=6km/hr Q17) Answer d

Q13) Answer c Upstream speed=2/(30/60)=4km/hr

Let the distance is D km Downstream speed=14/(7/3)=6km

Speed of boat is x km/hr Speed of boat=(6+4)/2=10/2=5km/hr

So according to the question, Q18) Answer c

D/x-5=12 →(1) and D/x+5=8 →(2) Downstream speed=16 km/hr

Dividing eq 1 from eq 2 Speed of stream=6 km/hr

(x+5)/(x-5)=12/8=3/2 Speed of boat=16-6=10km/hr

Or,x=25 Upstream speed=10-6=4 km/hr

So speed of boat is 25km/hr Required ratio=4:16=1:4

Q14) Answer b Q19) Answer b

Speed of boat is=35-7=28km/hr Let the distance D and speed of stream is x

So upstream speed=28-7=21 km/hr So according to the question,

D/14-x=3*(D/14+x) Or, D/8=4

Or, 42-3x=14+x D=32 km

Or,4x=28 or, x=7 Q22) Answer d

Speed of stream =7 km/hr Upstream speed=45/9=5km/hr

Q20) Answer a Boat speed=9 km/hr

Let the distance is D km Speed of stream=9-5=4km/hr

Speed of stream is x km/hr Q23) Answer c

So according to the question, Speed of boat is 12km/hr

D/12+x=9 →(1) and D/12-x=27 →(2) Speed of stream is=12*75/100=9km/hr

Dividing eq 1 from eq 2 Time taken to go 80km=80/21=3.80 hr

(12-x)/(12+x)=1/3 Q24) Answer b

Or, x=6 Upstream speed =84/7=12

D=18*9=162km Downstream speed=60/3=20

Q21) Answer e Speed of boat=(20+12)/2=32/2=16km/hr

Downstream speed=6+2=8km/hr Q25) Answer a

Upstream speed=6-2=4km/hr Downstream speed=15

Let the distance is D Upstream speed=9

D/4-D/8=4 So boat speed=15+9/2=24/2=12km/hr
