100x = 21.212121.....
100x - x = 21.212121... – 0.212121...
99x = 21. ( divide both side by 90)
x = 21/99
x = 21:3/99:3
x = 7/33

Answer:
12 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Let speed of boat in still water be "x"
and speed of current be "c"
So, downstream rate would be "x + c"
And, upstream rate would be "x - c"
Now, given c = 4
We can use the distance formula, D = RT, where
D is distance, R is rate, and T is time
to solve this.
Downstream:
D = RT
92 = (x+4)(t)
Upstream:
D = RT
46 = (x-4)(t)
Both the times are same, we can equate both the times. Lets simplify first:
t = 92/(x+4)
and
t = 46/(x-4)
Equate:

Now, cross multiply and solve for x to get our answer:

Speed of Boat (in still water) = 12 mph
