The distance to the epicenter can be calculated using the formula that relates the time difference between P-waves and S-waves to the distance. The typical formula is Distance (in kilometers) = Time difference (in seconds) × 8. For a time difference of 430 seconds, the distance to the epicenter would be approximately 3,440 kilometers.
