Two boats start together and race across a 46-km-wide lake and back. Boat A goes across at 46 km/h and returns at 46 km/h. Boat B goes across at 23 km/h, and its crew, realizing how far behind it is getting, returns at 69 km/h. Turnaround times are negligible, and the boat that completes the round trip first wins. Which boat wins? (Or is it a tie?)By how much? (km/h) What is the average velocity of the winning boat? (km/h)
