Answers
⇏Speed of a car in first 15 minutes = 40 km /h
⇏Distance covered = Speed × time taken
⇏60 minutes = 1 hour
⇏15 minutes = 15/60 hour.
⇏Distance covered = 240 × 15/ 60 = 10 km.
⇏Speed of a car in next 15 minutes = 60 km/h
⇏Distance covered = 69 × 15/ 60 = 15 km.
Total distance covered = (10+15) = 25 km.
★Total distance covered by the car is 25 km.★

Question :-
A car moves with a speed of 40 km/h for 15 minutes and then with a speed of 60km/h for the next 15 minute the total distance covered by the car is?
Required Answer :-
Total distance covered by the car is 25km.
Given :-
Speed of car in first 15 minutes = 40km/hr
Speed of car in next 15 minutes = 60km/hr
To find :-
Distance covered by the Car
Formula used :-
Distance covered = speed × time
Solution :-
Speed of car in first 15 minutes = 40km/hr.
(convert 15 minutes into hour)
60 minutes = 1 hour
15 minutes = 15/60 hour
Distance covered = speed × time
= 40 × 15/60
= 10km
Speed of car in next 15 minutes = 60km/h
15 minutes = 15/60 hour
Distance covered = speed × time
= 60 × 15/60
= 15km
Total distance covered = Distance covered in first 15 minutes + Distance covered in next 15 minutes
10 km + 15 km = 25km
Therefore, total distance covered by car is 25km.
