Let’s assume the following given:
Speed = 129 m/s
Time = 2,900,000 s
Find:
Distance = ?
Solution:
In order to get the distance, we multiply speed and time.
Distance = Speed * Time
Distance = 129 m/s * 2,900,000 s
Distance = 374,100,000 m
Next, we will convert the distance from meters to kilometers
by dividing the distance with 1,000 m.
374,100,000 m / 1,000 m = 374,100 km
<span>The last step would be converting the travelled distance in
kilometers to the nearest ten thousand.
Therefore, the travelled distance in kilometers to the nearest ten thousand is
370,000 km.</span>
