Answer:

  18.64 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 1.609344 km per mile, so the distance traveled in 1 second is ...

  (30 km)(1 mi)/(1.609344 km) ≈ 18.64 mi

The Earth travels around the Sun at the rate of about 18.64 miles per second.

Answer:

18.64 if rounded

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to know how many miles is 1 kilometer. That would be approximately 0.62137 miles. Multiply this by 3 and you would get 1.86411. Now multiply this by 10 to make it 30 kilometers worth of miles and not 3 kilometers. You would get 18.6411 which rounded to the hundredths place would be 18.64.
