    From the given problem, there are only two parameters that are known: speed and time. From these two, I deduced that the obvious parameter relating them is the distance. Hence, I am guessing that what is asked here is the total distance a certain elementary particle has traveled in its lifetime. This can be determined by merely multiplying the speed with the lifetime of years.

    Total distance = (2.75*10⁸ m/s) * (3.86*10⁻⁶ s)

    Total distance = 1.0615*10¹⁵ meters
