[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] A canoeist is traveling upstream. 2 miles later he comes across a log going the opposite way.He travels for another 1 hour then turns around. He gets to his starting point the same time the log does. What is the speed of the stream? [/ QUOTE ] Having trouble coming up with this solution. Any help would be appreciated. [/ QUOTE ] The speed of the river is one mile per hour. The speed of the canoeist is not important (and cannot be determined). If anyone's interested I'll explain. |
