A river flows at 2m/s. Juan’s boat can travel twice as fast down the river as it can go up the river. How fast can the boat go in still water?

Answer: 2m/s

Explanation:

The boat goes twice as fast down the river, which means it goes twice as slow up the river.

Because the river flows at 2m/s, I think the answer is 2m/s
