Answer:
it's C
Explanation:
Astronomers measure large distances in light-years. One light-year is the distance that light can travel in one year, or approximately 5.88\times 10^{12}5.88×1012 miles. Suppose a star is 2.23\times 10^22.23×102 light years from Earth.
To find : In scientific notation, how many miles away a star is from earth?
Solution :
One light-year is the distance that light can travel in one year is 5.88\times 10^{12}5.88×1012 miles.
In 2.23\times 10^22.23×102 lights year the distance is
=5.88\times 10^{12}\times 2.23\times 10^2=5.88×1012×2.23×102
=1.31124\times10^{15}=1.31124×1015
Therefore, Option C is correct.
