The diameter of the moon is about 3,476 kilometers the distance from earth to the moon is about 384,400 kilometers about how many moons could be lined up in a row between earth and the moon round the nearest whole number

384,400 /3476 = 110.587 so 111  

because .587 is more than half way from 110 to 111

Remark

You have to make up your own formula here. You also should estimate the answser. That's always good practice. It makes you think about Math.

Estimate

If you take 384,000 and estimate it to be 300000 and do the same with the diameter to make it 3000

300,000 / 3000 = 100 about. You should get an answer of 100

Formula

Distance to the moon (D)= number of moons (n) * diameter of 1 moon (di).

Givens

D = 384000

n = ??

di = 3476

Solution

384000 = n * 3476    Divide by 3476

384000 /3476 = n / 3476

n = 110.5 moons which I think you should like round to 110.

You could fit 110 moons in the given distance
