Question

08 which value would be the most likely

measurement of the distance from the earth to the

moon?

A)1.3 x 10° ft.

B)1.3 x 10-9 ft.

C)1.3 x 10100 ft.

D)1.3 x 102 ft.

Answer 1

The distance from Earth to Moon will be approximately equal to
`1.3 * 10^(9)` feet.

Explanation:

The distance from Earth to Moon is about 1.261 billion feet.

It can be approximated the distance to be 1.3 billion feet.

Now, 1 billion feet is equivalent to 1,000,000,000 feet i.e.
`10^(9)` feet.

Therefore, the distance from Earth to Moon will be approximately equal to
`1.3 * 10^(9)` feet. (Answer)
