  • A
    $8 \frac{1}{3}$
  • B
    $9 \frac{1}{5}$
  • C
    $10$

$A$ river is flowing at a speed of $5\, km/h$ in a particular direction. $A$ man,who can swim at a speed of $20\, km/h$ in still water,starts swimming along the direction of flow of the river from point $A$ and reaches another point $B$ which is at a distance of $30\, km$ from the starting point $A$. On reaching point $B$,the man turns back and starts swimming against the direction of flow of the river and stops after reaching point $A$. The total time taken by the man to complete his journey is:

$A$ boatman goes $2\, km$ against the stream in $1\, hour$ and goes $1\, km$ along the current in $10\, minutes.$ How long will he take to go $5\, km$ in stationary water?
