speed of the stream is one mile per hour. Find David's speed in still water. (Hint: speed = distance ÷ time, upstream speed = speed of the boat – speed of the stream, and downstream speed = speed of the boat + speed of the stream)

Upstream speed = S - 1
Downstream speed = S + 1

Average speed = total distance / total time

Average speed = (S - 1) + (S + 1) / 2
= S

S = 6 miles / 4 hours
S = 1.5 miles per hour
