Question

As Mars revolves around the sun, it travels at a speed of approximately
15
miles per second. Convert this speed to miles per minute. At this speed, how many miles will Mars travel in
4
minutes? Do not round your answers.

Answer 1

Step 1: Multiply 15 and 60 that equals 900
Step 2: Now multiply 900 by 4 and that equals 3,600

So, Mars revolves around the sun 900 miles per minute. In four minutes mars would have traveled 3,600 miles every 4 minutes.
