SOLUTION: If 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 Uranus. Moon: 240,0

Question 259753: If 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 Uranus.

Assuming the same speed, 240,000/3=80,000 mpd
1,690,000,000/80000=169000/8
21125 days
But the the spaceship would use the gravity of the moon to boost its speed.
