The speed of the boat along the river is 22 km / h, and against the current 18 km / h. Find the speed of the river and your own speed of the boat.

1. To solve the problem, let us find the speed of the river if we know the speed of the boat upstream and upstream of the river.

(22 – 18) / 2 = 2 kilometers.

2. In the second step, find the boat’s own speed.

22 – 2 = 20 kilometers.

Answer: The speed of the river is two kilometers per hour, and the boat’s own speed is twenty kilometers per hour.
