a) A boat travels 300m up stream in 15 minutes
b)Its speed down stream is 8/5 times its speed upstream
Which of the options provide the correct realationship between speed of current and speed of
ASpeed of current=12/10 times of speed of boat

CSpeed of current=11/10 times of speed of boat
DSpeed of current=9/13 times of speed of boat
Answer: Option B

Sloving this two equation we get u=1560 and v=360
Now (v:u)=360:1560=3:13
