    This document contains 15 multiple choice questions about boats traveling upstream and downstream in rivers at various speeds, and calculating the speed of the boat, speed of the current, and distances traveled. The questions require using concepts like determining speeds when traveling with and against the current, calculating time taken to travel distances based on given speeds, and setting up and solving equations to derive unknown speeds when parts of the information are provided.
