Downstream DATA:
distance = 12 miles
time = 2 hours
rate = 12/2 = 6 mph
----------------
Upstream DATA:
distance = 12 miles
time = 4 hrs
rate = 12/4 = 3 mph
----
Equations:
Downstream: b + c = 6
Upstream::: b - c = 3
------
Add to get:
2b = 9
b = 4.5 mph (speed of the boat in still water.)
-----
Solve for "c":
b + c = 6
4.5 + c = 6
c = 1.5 mph (speed of the current)
The answer is 1.5 mph

You are to follow the clues. Since is is 2 digits and is prime, go through the prime numbers between 10 and 20. They are 11, 13, 17, and 19. Then you find the factors of 34 which are 1×34 2x17. That leaves only 1 possible answer: 17
