QuestionHow many years does light take to travel $3.65 \times 10^{8}$ miles if a light year is $5.87 \times 10^{12}$ miles?

Studdy Solution
Perform the division to calculate the number of years.
$$Years = \frac{3.65 \times10^{8}}{.87 \times10^{12}} \approx6.22 \times10^{-}$$So, it will take approximately $6.22 \times10^{-}$ years for light to travel from Earth to Jupiter at the closest distance.
