If a kiloparsec (kpc) is equal to 1000 parsecs, how many light years is a kiloparsec equal to?
3,260 light years
3.26 light years
3 million light years
2, 260 light years
A parsec (pc) is equivalent to approximately 3.26 light years.
Therefore, a kiloparsec (kpc), which is equal to 1000 parsecs, would be equal to 1000 multiplied by 3.26 light years.
So, a kiloparsec is equal to 3260 light years.
