Kavin bought apple, orange and Downstream speed of X=a+w
banana=8y:5y:7y Upstream speed of Y=b-w
2y=12 80/(b-w)-80/(a+w)=1/2
y=6kg 1/(b-w)-1/(a+w)=1/160

Quantity II,
Let us take the distance x
From case I:
X = 6 * (x+16/60)
From case II:
X = 14 * (x-8/60)
6 * (x+16/60) = 14 * (x-8/60) Ratio=3:2
Simplify the above equation we get x = 13/30 hrs X=3*16/2=24kg
