$A$ boat takes half the time to travel a certain distance downstream compared to upstream. The ratio of the speed of the boat in still water to the speed of the current is:

$P$,$Q$,and $R$ are three towns on a river that flows uniformly. $Q$ is equidistant from $P$ and $R$. $I$ row from $P$ to $Q$ and back in $10$ $hours$,and $I$ can row downstream from $P$ to $R$ in $4$ $hours$. Compare the speed of my boat in still water with that of the river.
