The average distance between base pairs measured parallel to the axis of a DNA molecule is...

The average distance between base pairs measured parallel to the axis of a DNA molecule is 3.4 Å. The average molar mass of a pair of nucleotides is 650 g/mol. Estimate the length in centimeters of a DNA molecule of molar mass 5.0 × 109 g/mol. Roughly how many base pairs are contained in this molecule?
