#~~1.498xx10^8# #kms#

Explanation:

Let's calculate it using the Speed Distance and Time formula

#color(blue)("Speed"="Distance"/"Time"#

So, the distance will be the product of the Speed and time take

Convert the time from minutes to seconds

#rarr8.3# #"mins"##=498# #sec#

So the distance in metres would be

#rarr3xx10^8xx498# #m#

#rarr1498xx10^8# #m#

Write it in standard form

#rarr149800000000# #m#

To convert to kilometres cancel out the three #0's# at the end

#color(green)(rArr149800000=1.498xx10^8# #kms#

Hope this helps..! :)
