I hope you are aware that movement must be expressed in relation to some reference point. If you mean the Solar System's orbital velocity around our Milky Way, that happens at a speed of about 220 km/second. You can base your calculations on that.

It is not easy to answer the question since there is no fixed point - no frame of reference - against which distance can be measured. The Milky Way Galaxy is rotating and with it the sun and the solar system are moving at around 828,000 km/hour.

On top of that, the Milky Way and Andromeda Galaxies are moving towards each other at around 130 km per second; our Local Group [of galaxies] is moving towards the constellation of Hydra at an estimated 600 km/s. Depending on the exact direction of each of these components, the Solar S

System would be travelling through space at 30 billion kilometres per year.
