Solution

Fastest boat is the machine boat that travels at 22 km per hour
Distance covered by the machine boat in 1 hour = 22 km
Distance covered by the machine boat in 6 hours = 6 × 22 km
= 132 km

Slowest boat is the log boat that travels at 4 km per hour
Distance covered by the log boat in 1 hour = 4 km
Distance covered by the log boat in 6 hours = 6 × 4 km
= 24 km
