If we have the speed of 18 miles per second, 18miles/s
to find out what is the speed in 1 minute we will need to multiply 18 by 60, as there are 60 seconds in 1 minute
18 miles..............................1 second
?miles..................................60 seconds(1min)
18*60=1080 miles
we have 1080 miles/minute
in 2 minutes we have 1080*2=2160 miles
hope it helps

The number of miles that the earth travels in 2 minutes is 2,160 miles.

Given that,

  • The speed is 18 miles per second,
  • And, the earth travels in 2 minutes,

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

Since it is 18 miles per second

So 18 miles in per minute is

[tex]= 18\times 60[/tex]

= 1,080 miles per minute

Now there are 2 minutes

So, the total miles should be

[tex]= 1080 \times 2[/tex]

= 2,160 miles

Therefore we can conclude that the number of miles that the earth travels in 2 minutes is 2,160 miles.
