To find: The amount of time it takes for light from a source to reach a planet.
Explanation of Solution
The large value for the representation for the speed, time and others, since the large values are difficult to compute they represent because it may contain too many digits.
Through the use of the properties of exponents, those large numbers or even very small numbers can be manageable.
The amount of time it takes for light from a source to reach a planet, as long the distance of the planet from the light source is known, it can be divided by the speed of light.
