    Answer:

    20 hours

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Mathematically we know that;

    time = distance/ speed

    distance = 239,000 miles

    Time = 200 miles per minute

    time = 239,000/200 = 1195 minutes

    Let us convert this to hours by dividing by 60 (since 60 minutes equal an hour

    So we have 1195/60 = 19.91

    This is approximately 20 hours
