Astronomers measure large distances in light-years. One light-year is the distance that light can travel in one year, or approximately 5.88 *10^12 miles. Suppose a star is 3.2 * 10^2 light-years from Earth. In scientific notation, approximately how many miles is it?

A)1.88 x 10^12
B)5.88 x 10^14
C)3.2 x 10^15
D)1.88 x 10^15

Can someone please answer the question? : (

It been six years and still no answer :(

IT’S JUST WATER WEIGHT!

5.76 x 10^14 miles

idk

Whoops never mind I'm on a different lesson lol

it is C

1 light year = 5.88*10^12 miles

so....

3.2 * 10^2 light-years= ? miles

?miles : multiply 3.2 * 10^2 light-years and 5.88*10^12 together

Umma, those numbers still don’t add up

Its D)1.88 x 10^15 if you do what umma tells you.
