The motor ship sailed 4.5 hours against the sea and 0.8 hours along the river. What path did the motor ship cover if its speed against the current is 24.6 km / h and the speed of the current is 1.8 km / h?

1. Let’s determine what distance the motor ship covered against the current, if the speed and time are known.

4.5 * 24.6 = 110.7 kilometers.

2. Let’s find its speed with the flow.

24.6 + 1.8 + 1.8 = 28.2 kilometers.

3. Find out the distance that he swam downstream in 0.8 hours.

0.8 * 28.2 = 22.56 kilometers.

4. Let’s calculate the total path that the motor ship has done.

110.7 + 22.56 = 133.26 kilometers.

Answer: The entire route of the ship is 133 kilometers 260 meters.
