Data Interpretation

Directions (1-5): Study the data given below and answer the following questions. The pie charts shown below shows the distance covered by a boat moving upstream and downstream in different days of a week. And the table shows the speed of stream in km/hr. in different days of a week.

                      

1. If the time taken by boat to travel upstream on Wednesday is 6/7 times than the time taken to travel downstream on Monday and the speed of boat in still water on Monday is 15 kmph then find the speed of boat in still water on Wednesday? ( speed of boat in still water is different for different days) 

Answer:    46km/hr
                                            

2. If the time taken by boat to travel upstream on Monday is 27 1/5 hrs. more than the time taken by it to travel downstream on the same day, then find the speed of boat in still water on Monday ? (speed of boat in still water is same in upstream as in downstream)


Answer:        25 kmph
        
                                                     

3. If the speed of boat in still water on Saturday was 27 km/hr and the speed of boat in still water on Wednesday was 662/3% more than that of Saturday and time taken to travel upstream on Wednesday is 16/13 times than time taken by it to travel downstream on Saturday, then find the speed of stream (in kmph) on Saturday? 


Answer:   6hrs  15min

                                         

4. If the time taken by boat to travel upstream on Friday is 30 hours more than the time taken by it to travel downstream on Wednesday and the speed of boat in still water on Friday is 17 kmph, then find the upstream speed of boat on Wednesday? (speed of boat in still water is different on different days)



Answer :   10km/hr

                                            

5. The speed of boat in still water on Saturday was 21 km/hr. and that on Sunday was 284/7% more than that on Saturday, if the time taken by boat to travel upstream on Saturday is 21/2 times than time taken to travel downstream on Sunday, then find the time taken by the boat to cover a distance of 125 km upstream on Saturday?

Answer –  6 hrs. 15 min.
