There are few different notations. Some people use the letterd for distance. So the distance from A to C would be d(A,C). The notation using d is nice because it does not specify and specific dimension. Furthermore, there are different ways of measuring distances. These are called metrics.
The usual metric is the distance formula often taught in Algebra classes. So another way to denote the distance is |A-C| where
the vertical bars mean absolute value. Of course the distance from A to C is the same as the distance from C to A so we could also write |C-A|. This notation measures what is known as the Euclidean distance.
Just as an aside, here is an example of another metric known as the Taxi Cab metric. Minkowski was the first to consider this I believe. I will place a link to a good Wikipedia article about it for those who are interested. Metrics are often studied in a branch of math known as Topology There is also a link to an article on metrics in general. It is interesting to see all the ways to measure "distance."

The average distance is 3.844*10^5 kilometres.
The sides
1.082 x 10^8
In the C and C++ languages the array notation arr[i] is completely equivalent to the pointer notation *(arr + i).
The "C" in music notation represents the note or pitch that is in the middle of the musical scale.
1,000 is already in standard notation.
Yes. ^_^
10000000000000000
It is about 240,000 miles which in scientific notation is: 2.4*10^5
It is about: 9.3*10^7 miles in scientific notation

Middle C in musical notation and performance is commonly referred to as a frequency of 261.63 Hz.
368,000 in Scientific Notation = 3.68 x 105
