A rower can row upstream at 18 kph and downstream at 34 kph. What is the speed of the rower in still water? Select:	A) 24	B) 25	C) 26	D) 27	E) 28
Let V be the rower's speed in still water.   Let S be the speed of the current in the stream   V-S = 18   V+S = 34   When we add the two equations, we get: 2V = 52   Then V = 26 kph.   The answer is 26.
