Answer: New ratio = 3 : 2  

Explanation: 

Let the number of Girls be 'G'.

Given that the number of boys = 15 

Ratio = G/15  = 4/3 

Therefore, 

3G = 4 x 15 = 60 

G = 60/3 = 20 

This means the number of girls = 20 

Now, 

One boy left the class, and one girl joined the class. 

Therefore, the number of boys =  15 - 1 = 14

and, the number of girls = 20 + 1 = 21 

New ratio = 21 / 14 = 3/2 

New ratio = 3 : 2

Speed=Distance/time

Here,

distance=15m

time=1sec

speed=15/1=15m/sec

Distance=Speed*time

time=15min=15*60sec=900sec

Distance travelled in 15 min=15*900=13,500m

=13500/1000 km=13.5Km
