Solution

To determine which car is slower, we need to compare their speeds.

Step 1: Calculate the speed of each car. Speed is calculated by dividing the distance travelled by the time taken.

For Car A: Distance travelled = 60 km Time taken = 1 hour So, Speed of Car A = 60 km / 1 hour = 60 km/h

For Car B: Distance travelled = 40 km Time taken = 0.5 hour (since half an hour is 0.5 of an hour) So, Speed of Car B = 40 km / 0.5 hour = 80 km/h

Step 2: Compare the speeds.

Car A has a speed of 60 km/h and Car B has a speed of 80 km/h.

Therefore, Car A is slower than Car B.
