    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

    384,400 / 3476 = 110.587 so 111

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