The period of the moons orbit about the Earth is 27.3 days but the average time between full months is approximately 29.3 days. Through what fraction of its total orbital period does the Earth move in one period of the moon's orbit?
1 in 12.37
The lunar orbit period in relation to the Earth-Sun longitudinal plane is approximately 20.53 days. The Earth-Sun longitudinal plane has a nearly 360-degree rotation period of 365.256 days. The ratio is approximately 1/12.37.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
