Answer 1

We are given

The largest telescope in the world is powerful enough to identify a penny that is 5 miles away

it means that

distance =5 miles

we can change it into yards

we know that

1 mile=1760 yards

$d=5\times 1mile$

we can replace 1 mile

$d=5\times 1760 yards$

$d=8800 yards$

So, distance in yards is 8800 yards..........Answer
