Answer:

The distance between the two stars in miles is 5.292 * 10^10 miles

Explanation:

Here, we want to make a conversion from light year to miles

To make this conversion, we simply are going to multiply the light year by the miles

Mathematically, we have this as;

9 * 10^-3 * 5.88 * 10^12

= 52.92 * 10^9

= 5.292 * 10^10 miles
