Nonoy can finish a certain job in 10 days if Imelda will help for 6 days. The same work can be done by Imelda in 12 days if Nonoy helps for 6 days. If they work together, how long will it take for them to do the job? A boat takes 2/3 as much time to travel downstream from C to D. As to return, if the rate of the river’s current is 8 kph, what is the speed of the boat in still water?
