Question 1129471: The distances between objects in space are so great that units other than miles or kilometers are often used. For example, the astronomical unit (AU) is the average distance between Earth and the sun, or 92,900,000. Use this information to convert the distance of some planet in miles from its star to astronomical units. The planet is 2789 million miles from the star.
The distance between the planet and the star is ___________AU (Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.)
The surface area of the box is ____________ (in or cu. in. or sq.in)
