Question

The moon is 384,403 km from the earth how many quarters laid end to end it would take to reach the moon if a quarter has a diameter of 2.3 cm

Answer 1

Answer:

Distance from the moon= dm= 384,403km

A quarter diameter= dq= 2.3 cm= 0.000023km

No of quarters= 16,713,173, 913

To convert cm into km divide cm by 100 and then by 1000

as

1m= 100cm

1km= 1000m

Therefore

2.3/100= 0.023 m

And

0.023/1000= 0.000023 km

Dividing the distance from the moon by the diameter of the quarter laid end to end would give the number of the quarters needed.

No. of quarters= Distance from the moon/ Diameter of the quarter

                             = 384,403km/0.000023 km

                             =       16,713,173,913.043

Rounding  16,713,173,913.043 gives 16,713,173,913 quarters
