Answer:

Thus; Jupiter travels at 480 miles/m and in 6 minutes, it will travel 2880 miles.


Step-by-step explanation:

First to convert it you need to multiply 8 miles per second by 60 seconds because there are 60 seconds in a minute:


 8 miles    x    60 s 

1 second        1 min


The unit of seconds will cancel out so you will get 480 miles/ min


To get how far it travels in 6 min you need to multiply the speed by 6 minutes


480 miles   x  6 min = 2880

  1 min


The unit of minutes will cancel out to get 2880 miles
