Call the rate in still water vs;
upstream you have: vs-v=6/4
downstram you have: vs+v=6/3
where v is the rate with which the river flows.
rearranging:
vs-v=3/2
vs+v=2
from the second you have v=2-vs substitute into the first:
vs-2+vs=3/2
2vs=7/2
vs=7 mi/hr

What is a mixed number ?

  • A bit represented with its quotient and remainder is a mixed bit. For illustration,21/3 is a mixed bit, where 2 is the quotient, 1 is the remainder.
  • So, a mixed bit is a combination of a whole number and a proper bit. A mixed bit, also called a mixed number, is a whole number and a bit together.
  • The bit is written to the right of the whole number.
  • A mixed number is formed by combining three corridor a whole number, a numerator, and a denominator. The numerator and denominator are part of the proper bit that makes the mixed number.
