Solution

The correct option is B Boat B
Speed of Boat A = 20 km per hour
Speed of Boat B = 16 km per hour
Speed of Boat C = 22 km per hour
Speed of Boat D = 17 km per hour

We know that, the speed 22 km/hr > 20 km/hr > 17 km/hr > 16 km/hr.
Here, 16 km/hr is the slowest speed.

Boat B moves with a speed of 16 km per hour and it moves with the slowest speed.
