Question 262717: If the distance from the earth to the sun were 92,900,000 miles, how long would it take a rocket, traveling at 2.8 × 10^3 miles per hour, to reach the sun? In scientific notation. Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! It's d = rt
92900000 = 2800*t
t = 92900000/2800
t =~ 33178.57 hours
t =~ 3.3179*10^4 hours
----------------------
3.3179E4 is easier to say and type, and it's commonly used.
