To find the distance Earth travels in one day at an average speed of 18.5 miles per second, you can multiply the speed by the number of seconds in a day. There are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour, so there are 60×60=360060 \times 60 = 360060×60=3600 seconds in an hour. Therefore, there are 3600×24=86,4003600 \times 24 = 86,4003600×24=86,400 seconds in a day.

Now, let's calculate the distance:

18.5 miles/second×86,400 seconds/day18.5 \, \text{miles/second} \times 86,400 \, \text{seconds/day}18.5miles/second×86,400seconds/day

≈1,596,000 miles/day\approx 1,596,000 \, \text{miles/day}≈1,596,000miles/day

So, Earth travels approximately 1,596,000 miles in one day at an average speed of 18.5 miles per second. If you have any more questions or if there's anything else I can help you with, feel free to let me know!
