Answer:Initial reading of the odometer of the car = 57321.0 km
Final reading of the odometer of the car = 57336.0 km
Distance covered by the car = Final reading of the odometer of the car - Initial reading of the odometer of the car
= 57336.0 - 57321.0 = 15 km
The given car starts at 8:30 a.m. and stops at 8:50 a.m.
Therefore, time taken by the car to cover the distance is (8:50 — 8:30) min = 20 min
Distance covered by the car =15 km
Time taken by the car = 20 min
