Any constellation is a group of stars that appear to form some kind of pattern,
but have no connection with each other. They all happen to be in roughly the
same direction from us, but they're all at different distances. So there's no
such thing as a constellation's distance from us.

Sagittarius contains a very large number of stars and other cosmic objects which have no astrophysical relationship with one another. It is simply that they are located in such a direction, and are so far away, that they appear to move together. The constellation is in the direction of the centre of the Milky Way Galaxy and so contains a large number of nebulae and star clusters.
The distances to the cosmic objects that make up Sagittarius range enormously. There are 3 stars within 30 light years, A hyper-giant star called the Pistol Star which is 25,000 light years away, and the Sagittarius Dwarf Irregular Galaxy which, at 3.4 million light years is thought to be the furthest object in the Local Group of galaxies. You can take your pick as to which number in that range represents the distance to Sagittarius.
5000 light years
There is no magnitude. Everything you have been told is a lie. Nothing is true, everything is permitted.
The distance between stars are much greater than distances between objects in our solar system
Millions.
no there is 24
A distance in space, between stars etc.
Hundreds of thousands.
The correct unit to describe the distance between stars is the "light year", the distance a photon of light would travel (through a vacuum) in a year.
The distance between stars can be anything from light minutes to billions of light years.
Yes, all the stars that make up the constellation Sagittarius are part of our galaxy, the Milky Way.
Stars are not measured in light years. The distance between them is.
The two signs Sagittarius fits between are Scorpio and Capricorn.
