Speed of a man is $12 \text{ km/h}$ in still water. If the rate of current is $4 \text{ km/h}$,then the effective speed of the man upstream is ......... $\text{km/h}$.

$A$ boat can travel with a speed of $13\, km/hr$ in still water. If the speed of the stream is $4\, km/hr,$ find the time taken by the boat to go $68\, km$ downstream. (in $hours$)

The speed of a boat in still water is $6\, km/h$ and the speed of the stream is $1.5\, km/h$. $A$ man rows to a place at a distance of $22.5\, km$ and comes back to the starting point. Find the total time taken by him (in $hours$).

The ratio of the speed of a motorboat to the speed of the water current is $36: 5$. The boat travels along with the current in $5\, h\, 10\, min$. How long will it take to return?

In a river,the ratio of the speed of the stream to the speed of a boat in still water is $2:5$. In another case,the ratio of the speed of the stream to the speed of a boat in still water is $3:4$. What is the ratio of the speeds of the first boat to the second boat in still water?

$A$ boatman can row $2\, km$ against the stream in $20\, minutes$ and return in $18\, minutes.$ Find the rate of the current in $km/h$.
