If a ship is within the Milky Way, and can travel 50 light years in 20 minutes(still in the Milky Way) how fast is this ship? Thanks!
 
It's position in the Milky Way should be irrelevant.

50 light years is 4.73E17 m
20 minutes is 1200 s

Using 2 significant digits

v = d/t = (4.73E17)/1200 = 3.94E14 m/s MFTL+

Corroborating
50 light years in 20 minutes = 5 light years in 2 minutes = 0.0416 light years per second = 3.935664E14 m/s
