Answer :-

25 km

Solution :-

Speed of the car in first 15 mins ,

The car is moving in the speed of 40 km/h for 15 mins.

  • Distance covered = speed × Time taken
  • Distance covered = 240 × 15/60 = 10 km

Speed of car in next 15 mins ,

again ,

  • distance covered = 60 × 15/60 = 15km

now , total distance covered = ( 10 + 15 ) km = 25 km

Hope it helps~

Answer:

25 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = speed * time

We have change time which are given in minutes to hour. As the speed is mentioned in kilometre per hour.

For part A:


\rightarrow Distance = speed * time


\hookrightarrow Distance = 40 * (15)/(60)


\hookrightarrow Distance = 10 km

For part B:


\rightarrow Distance = speed * time


\hookrightarrow Distance =60 * (15)/(60)


\hookrightarrow Distance = 15 km

Total distance covered:

part A + part B

10 km + 15 km

25 km
