    1 AU means 1 astronomical unit or the aproximate distance from the earth to the sun 1AU=149597870.7 kiometers

    1 billion=1,000,000,000600 billion=600,000,000,000

    x times 1AU=600,000,000,000

    x times 149597870.7=600,000,000,000solve for xdivide both sides by 149597870.7x=4010.75so aprox 4011 AU's
