Measure the speed at two different points in time. Then take your first value and subtract the second value. A positive value means a gain in speed, a negative number is a decrease in speed, and a value of 0 means no change in speed. The value itself represents how much it has changed. To describe the the change as acceleration you need to divide the change in speed in meters per second, by the time it took in seconds. The SI unit for acceleration is meteres per second per second.

How to figure out speed limit on the amount of time it takes you?

It's not possible to figure out speed limit by the amount of time it takes you to get somewhere, although it is possible to figure out how long it will take you to get somewhere by using the speed limit. Ex. If you are going 60 mph, then you then you are going a mile a minute. That's why they categorize it with "Miles per hour"
