Hey there! Based on the information you’ve provided:

1. The speed of the man upstream is calculated as (25.8km)/(8.6hrs) , which gives us around 3 km/h.

2. The speed downstream is (20km)/(4hrs), so 5 km/h.


To find the speed of the man in still water, we use the formula:

Speed in still water = (upstream speed+ downstream speed)/2

So, (3+5)/2 = 4km/h

Therefore, the speed of the man in still water is 4 km/h.
