Answer:

15000 m distance does it travel in one minute

Explanation:

Use conversion:

1 minutes = 60 seconds

As per the statement:

The cruising speed of a Boeing 747 is 250 m/s.

⇒Speed = 250 m/s

In 1 second, the cruising travels 250 m

then;

in 60 seconds =
250 * 60 = 15000 m

or

in 1 minute, the distance travel by cruising is, 15000 m

Therefore, the distance does it travel in one minute is, 15000 m
