The distance traveled by Earth in one orbit around the Sun is about 580,000,000 miles. Earth makes one complete orbit around the Sun in one year. Of the following, which is closest to the average speed of Earth, in miles per hour, as it orbits the Sun?

Options

A. 66000
B. 93000
C. 210000
D. 420000

Explanation

To find the average speed of Earth as it orbits the Sun, we can use the formula for speed, which is:

\[ \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \]

### Step 1: Identify the distance traveled by Earth in one orbit.
The distance traveled by Earth in one complete orbit around the Sun is given as 580,000,000 miles.
