At Deoprayag, (Garhwal, UP ), river Alaknanda mixes with the river Bhagirathi and becomes river Ganga. Suppose Alaknanda has a width of 12 m, Bhagirathi has a width of 8 m and Ganga has a width of 16 m. Assume that the depth of water is same in the three rivers. Let the average speed of water in Alaknanda is 20 km h-1, and in Bhagirathi be 16 km h-1 . Find the average speed of water in the river Ganga
