How far apart are the two stars

Reference no: EM13551191

Astronomers discover a binary star system that has a period of 96.0days . The binary star system consists of two equal-mass stars, each with a mass twice that of the sun, that rotate like a dumbbell about the center of mass at the midpoint between them. How far apart are the two stars in m?
