4.5 h

5 h

4 h

- The speed of the boat in still water is 14 km/h.

- The speed of the current is 6 km/h.

- When traveling with the current, the speeds add up: \(14\text{ km/h} + 6\text{ km/h} = 20\text{ km/h}\).

- The distance to be traveled with the current is 80 km.

- Time taken is calculated by dividing the distance by the speed: \( \frac{80 \text{ km}}{20 \text{ km/h}} = 4\text{ h}\).

Option 4: 4 h is indeed the correct answer.
