Solution

The correct option is A Speed of jet is 314 km/h faster than the speed of Superman.
Given:

Speed of Superman=2.6×102 mi/h
=260 mi/h
=260×1.6 km/h
=416 km/h

Speed of the jet=7.3×102 km/h
=7.3×100
=730 km/h

730 km/h is greater than 416 km/h.

The speed of the jet is 314 km/h faster than the speed of Superman.
