Answer:

18 million kilometers in one min. and 0.3 million kilometers in one second

Explanation:

so the one min. is easy because all you have to do is take 180 and divide it by 10 and you get 18 million kilometers in one min. and then you would take 18 and divide it by 60 and you would get 0.3 million kilometers in one second
