Answer: 50 kilometers

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that the Pacific plate is moving at a speed of 5 centimeters per year. The number of kilometers that the Pacific plate will travel in 1 million years would be calculated as:

= 5 × 1,000,000

= 5,000,000 centimeters

Since 100000 centimeters = 1 kilometer, we would convert 5,000,000 centimeters to kilometers. This will be:

= 5,000,000 / 100,000

= 50 kilometers
