Tommy and Phillip went on a 36 mile canoe trip. The trip up river (going against the current) took 6 hours and the return trip took 3 hours. Find the rate at which they canoed in still water and the rate of the water.

6 miles per hour

12 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Distance of canoe trip = 36 miles

Trip up river (going against current) took 6 hours

Return trip time = 3 hours

Recall ; Rate = Distance traveled / time taken

Hence,

Rate of trip up river :

36 miles / 6 hours

= 6 miles per hour.

Rate of return trip:

36 miles / 3 hours

= 12 miles per hour
