Q: A man rows from J to K (upstream) and back from K to J (downstream) in a total time of 15 hours. The distance between J and K is 300 km. The time taken by the man to row 9 km downstream is identical to the time taken by him to row 3 km upstream. What is the approximate speed of the boat in still water?
