Question

Distance from Venus to the sun is 67,000,000 miles. Distance from the earth to the sun is about 2.6 times 10^7 farther what is the distance from earth to the sun

Answer 1

To find the distance from Earth to the Sun, we can multiply the given distance from Venus to the Sun by 2.6 times \(10^7\).

The distance from Venus to the Sun is 67,000,000 miles, which can be expressed as \(6.7 \times 10^7\) miles.

Now, the distance from Earth to the Sun is:

\[
\text{Distance from Earth to Sun} = \text{Distance from Venus to Sun} + 2.6 \times 10^7
\]

However, your question states that the distance from Earth to the Sun is about 2.6 times \(10^7\) farther than the distance from Venus to the Sun. This would imply:

\[
\text{Distance from Earth to Sun} = 67,000,000 + 26,000,000
\]

If we calculate it that way:

\[
\text{Distance from Earth to Sun} = 67,000,000 + 26,000,000 = 93,000,000 \text{ miles}
\]

Thus, the distance from Earth to the Sun is approximately **93,000,000 miles**.
