How to convert inches to light-years
ly = in ÷ 3.724697 × 1017
To convert inches to light-years, divide the number of inches by 3.724697 × 1017 .
Example: 18 in to ly
Start with the value in inches: 18 in.
Divide by 3.724697 × 1017 : 18 ÷ 3.724697 × 1017 = 4.8326078 × 10-17 .
Result: 18 inches = 4.8326078 × 10-17 light-years .
Going the other way, 1 light-year = 3.724697 × 1017 inches, so to convert light-years back to inches you multiply by the same number. See light-years to inches .
