It will take 3 hours to go 15 km if you just float with the current. It will take 1/5 of an hour, or 12 minutes to float the last km. So it will take 3 hours and 12 minutes to float down. If you are paddling, it will be faster.

Assuming the canoers do no rowing? That is you are just floating down the river.

Then:

16 km

———- =

5 km/hr

16 km * 1/5 hr/km =

3.2 hr

you can figure out the minutes.
