First off, the car is traveling at 40 km hr for 15 minutes.
15  minutes = 15 60  hours = 1 4  hours
Distance covered = speed × time = 40 × 1 4 = 10  km
Secondly, the car is moving with a speed of 60 km hr for 15 minutes.
Distance covered = 60 × 1 4 = 15  km
Total distance covered = 10 km + 15 km = 25 km
