One AU is approximately 1.496 x 10^8 kilometers. If you wanted to travel a distance of 9.0 AUs, we'd take that distance and multiply by 9 to get a distance of approximately 1,346,400,000 km. If Sally is able to travel 110 km/hr, then to figure out how many hours it'd take Sally to cover that sorta distance, we take our total distance and divide it by her velocity. 1,346,400,000 km divided by 110km/hr gives us a total time of 12,240,000 hours. To further help us visualize how much time this is, we can take that time and divide it by 24 hours to get it into days, which would be 510,000 days. Again, to further help us visualize the amount of time, divide this by 365 to turn that into years and we'd get a total time of 1,397.26 years if Sally didn't take any bathroom breaks. If Sally left now, she'd finally reach her destination about the year 3,418.
