The distance light travels in one year is approximately 5,870,000,000,000 miles. The distance light travels in 100 years is:

(a) 587 × 10⁸ miles, (b) 587 × 10¹⁰ miles, (c) 587 × 10^-10 miles, (d) 587 × 10¹² miles, (e) 587 × 10^-12 miles

The distance of the light travels in 100 years is:

5,870,000,000,000 × 100 miles.

= 587,000,000,000,000 miles.

= 587 × 10¹² miles.
