NASA's New Horizons Interplanetary probe...

NASA's New Horizons Interplanetary probe has been making its way to Pluto since January 2006. In July 2015, it reached Pluto and sent a ratio transmission signal at speed of `1.86 times10^(5)` miles per second. If the signal traveled a distance back to Earth of approximately `3.06times10^(9)` miles, how many minutes did it take for the signal to reach Earth, correct to the nearest 5 minutes?
