Example:
Two close stellar neighbors of Earth are Rigel Centaurus (4.3 light–years away) and
Sirius (8.7 light–years away). Use c, the speed of light (9.5 × 10
15
meters per year)
to convert the distances from the Earth to these stars into meters:
To Rigel Centaurus: 4.3 yr × (9.5 × 10
15
m/yr).
To Sirius: 8.7 yr × (9.5 × 10
15
m/yr).
