This gives you 50% from the first jar (if they pick that
jar they will get red 100% of the time). For the other jar
the chances are 49/99 or 49.494949%. Divide that by 2 and
its 24.7474%. Total odds are 50% plus 24.7474% = 74.7474%

Ques:- A boat running downstream covers a distance of 16 km in 2 hours while for covering the same distance upstream, it takes 4 hours. What is the speed of the boat in still water?
Recent Answer : Added by Anonymous On 2021-08-14 13:06:13:

Let:
1. speed of boat in still water = x
2. speed of stream = y;

Then net speed of boat upstream = x – y = 16km / 4 h = 4kmph
Net speed of boat downstream = x + y = 16 / 2 = 8kmph

Now solve for x to get x = 6kmph in still water.
