Brand X rowing speed still water. The speed of the current line would be 6 X and the speed of the rowing against the current X-6. Since it took 2 hours for X 6 on the same route as in the 3 hours journey-X-6 a.m.-2 p.m. (X 6) = 3 (X-6)
2 (X 6) = 3 (X-6)
2 X 12 = 3x-18
12 +18 = 3x-2x
30 = X
The calm water to paddle speed of 30 mph
