Case (1)

Speed of the car = 40 km/h

Time taken = 15 min

$\dfrac{15}{60}$ = 0.25 h 

Distance of car $D_{1}$ = Speed × Time taken

40 × 0.25 = 10 km

Case (2)

Speed of the car = 60 km/h

Time taken = 15 min

$\dfrac{5}{60}$ = 0.25 h 

Distance covered by car $D_{2}$ = Speed × Time taken

60 × 0.25 = 15 km

Total distance covered [D] = $D_{1}\:+\:D_{2}$

 10 + 15 = 25 km

Therefore, the total distance covered by the car is $\textbf{25 km}$
