Which of the following statement is correct?
I. Speed of boat in still water is 8 km/hr. If its speed in downstream is 12 km/hr, then its upstream speed is 10 km/hr.
II. A starts from point P at 8 am with speed of 50 km/hr. B starts from point P at 10 am with speed of 75 km/hr towards A. B will catch A at 2 pm.
  • ABoth I and II
  • BOnly II
  • COnly I
  • DNeither I nor II
Correct answer: B

Explanation

I: Upstream speed = 2 × 8 – 12 = 4 km/hr, not 10, so I is wrong. II: A is 100 km ahead at 10 am and B gains 25 km/hr, so B catches A after 4 hours, at 2 pm. Only II is correct.
