How many miles are in 4000 light years?

Answer 1

(4.06 X 10-8) x (5.8787 x 1012) = 238,680 miles(rounded)

That number looks strangely similar to the moon's average distance from earth.

Could that be what the questioner was getting at ???

Answer 2

Light travels at 186,000 miles per second, or 300,000 kilometers per second.

There are 60 seconds in a minute, 60 minutes in an hour, 24 hours in a day, and 365.24 days per year.

42 light years? Just multiply all those numbers together.
