Suppose it takes 3 days for a space vehicle to travel from earth to the moon. About how long would it take the same vehicle traveling at the same speed to reach neptune?
Distance to the moon is 240,000 miles
Distance to Neptune is 2,700,000,000 miles
The space vehicle would take how many days to reach Neptune??
Round to the nearest whole number, and use scientific notation
-----------------------
240000 miles/3 days = 80000 miles/day
-------------------
2,700,000,000 miles/80000 miles/day = 33750 days
= days or 3.375E4 days
