  1. Answer:

    The answer is C.) 300,000,000 m/s

    Explanation:

    Light travels at a constant rate of 300,000,000 m/s. this can be determined by dividing the distance (144,000,000,000 meters) by the time (480 seconds). that’s pretty fast. in fact, nothing can travel any faster than this. ever.
