Question 397347: It takes 3 days for a space vehicle to travel from the earth to the moon.About how long would it take the same vehicle travling at the same speed to reach Venus? Answer by ankor@dixie-net.com(22740) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Assuming you would make the trip to arrive when Venus was closest to the earth: 23.7 million miles
Assuming the moon distance is .252 million miles from the earth
: =
Cross multiply
.253t = 27.7 * 3
.253t = 83.1
t =
t ~ 329 days to get to Venus (no traffic)
