How long does it take (in minutes) for light to reach Jupiter from the Sun, a distance of 8.328 × 108 km

8.328 × 10^8 km / 300,000 km/s=2.776*10^3 s thats in seconds though, you need minutes.= 46.......

Please state your answer in minutes.
Thank you!

you are given a distance, use dimmensional analysis to find the number of seconds it would take.

light travels at 300,000 km/s approximately.

how do you go from km to s using km/s? just divide by km/s (in other words, to get from distance to time, divide the distance by the speed)

8.328 × 10^8 km / 300,000 km/s = 2.776*10^3 s that's in seconds though, you need minutes. so just divide by 60

= 46.26 minutes
