Let the speed of Ritu in still water and the speed of stream be x km/h and y km/h.                             

Upstream = (x – y) km/h                  

Downstream = (x + y) km/h            

⇒ 2(x + y) = 20                  

⇒ x + y = 10 ... (i)                  

⇒ 2(x – y) = 4                  

⇒ x – y = 2 ... (ii)                          

Putting this equation in (i), we get                  

⇒ y = 4                  

Ritu’s speed in still water is 6 km/h

The speed of the current is 4 km/h.
