Let the speed of the current equal c
and the speed of the boat in still water equal b.

b + c = 1.5 (b - c)
b + c = 1.5b - 1.5c
0.5b = 2.5c
b = 5c

The speed of the current is 1.5 mph so
b = 5 * 1.5 = 7.5 mph

Which is larger? 0.6 or 3/4 and explain why? And which one .
trapecia [35]
0.6 is just what it seems like. 3/4 needs to be turned into a decimal for it to be compared with 0.6. 3/4 equates to 0.75, so we can see that 0.6 < 0.75.
