Answer:
Planet X is 1.77 times further from Earth than Planet Y.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Planet X is 23 of a light-year away from Earth, while Planet Y is 13 of a light-year away from Earth, to determine how much farther away is Planet X the following calculation must be performed:
13 = 1
23 = X
23/13 = X
1.769 = X
Therefore, Planet X is 1.77 times further from Earth than Planet Y.
