the the distance from the Earth to the Moon is about 100 times the distance from California to New York what is a reasonable measure for the earth-moon distance
Step 1
distance from earth to the moon is=100* distance from California to New York
distance from California to New York is =2914.5 miles
Let
distance from the earth to the moon is=x
x=100*2914.5
x=2914500 miles
so, the distance reasonable for the earth-moon is 2914500 miles
