    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
