Earth is the third planet from the Sun, with an average distance of 93,000,000 miles. It takes light about 8 minutes to travel from the Sun
to Earth.
Pluto, a dwarf planet, has an average distance of 3.7 X10° miles
from the Sun. How many times farther from the Sun is Pluto than
Earth? How long does it take light to reach Pluto?

The ratio of the distance of Pluto and the earth to the Sun is 40.

Time taken by light to travel from Sun to Pluto is 5.3 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between Earth an Sun = 93,000,000 miles

Time from Sun to Earth = 8 minutes

Distance beteen Pluto and Sun = 3.7 x 10^9 miles

The ratio of the distance between Pluto and Sun to the Earth and Sun is

Now let the time taken by the light to move from Sun to Pluto is t.

c is the answer
