Respuesta :

given;

5,870,000,000,000 miles.

to find:

The distance light travels in 100 years.

solution:

The distance of the light travels in 100 years is:

5,870,000,000,000 × 100 miles.

= 587,000,000,000,000 miles

answer= option d

Given:

[tex]1 \: year = 5870000000000 \: miles[/tex]

To find:

The distance which light can travel in 100 years.

Solution:

to find the distance which light can travel in 100 years, multiply the distance which light can travel in 1 year (5,870,000,000,000 miles) by 100.

[tex] = 5870000000000 \times 100[/tex]

[tex] = 587000000000000 \: miles[/tex]

[tex] = 587 \times {10}^{12} [/tex]

Hence, the correct answer is option D
