A boat goes upstream at 36 km/h and downstream at 40 km/h. The distance covered in each trip being the same, find the speed of boat in still water.
upstream at 36 km/h and downstream at 40 km/h.
Speed of boat =$$\frac{speed of upstream + speed of downstream}{2}$$
          = $$\frac{36 + 40}{2}$$
          = 38 km/h
