For 159.
There 3600 seconds in one hour. There are 24 hours in one day. So, 3600 x 24 or 86,400 seconds in one day. In 365 days, there are 31,536,000 seconds.
186,000 miles/m = 1 second/(31,536,000)
Let m = miles in one light year
Is this the correct set up?
For 160
The speed of light is 3.00 x 10^(8) miles per second.
I say (distance Sun is from Earth)/(speed of light).
Is this the correct set up?
