Arrange the distances between earth and various celestial objects in order from least to greatest. use the conversion table to you. 1 au 1.5 × 108 km 1 ly 63,000 au 1 pc 3.262 ly distance to the star betelgeuse: 640 ly distance to the star vy canis majoris: 3.09 × 108 au distance to the galaxy large magellanic cloud: 49976 pc distance to neptune at the farthest: 4.7 billion km ↓ ↓ ↓

Distance to Neptune at the farthest < distance to the star Betelgeuse < distance to the star VY Canis Majoris < distance to the galaxy Large Magellanic Cloud

Explanation:

Firstly, we need to work with the same units in order to make the comparison among the given distances. So, let's work with kilometers ():

distance to the star Betelgeuse: 640 ly

distance to the star VY Canis Majoris: 3.09 × 108 AU

distance to the galaxy Large Magellanic Cloud: 49976 pc

distance to Neptune at the farthest: 4.7 billion km

Now that we have all the distances in kilometers we can compare and arrange them in order from least to greatest:

Distance to Neptune at the farthest:

Distance to the star Betelgeuse:  

Distance to the star VY Canis Majoris:

Distance to the galaxy Large Magellanic Cloud:
