there are 100 pennies in a dollar
7.7billion equals 77 Million dollars
1.5mm/10^3mm/m*7.7x10^9
1.5*7.7x10^6
11.55x10^6meters
11.55x10^3km

7 700 000 000/100= 77 000 000 dollars
7 700 000 000*0.55=4 235 000 000
4 235 000 000+7 700 000 000=11 935 000 000 mm
just find the distance from the earth to the moon and see
