Question

the average radius of Jupiter's orbit is 464,779,036 miles, and it travels at an average speed of 28,108 miles per hour.
Q: How many years does it take Jupiter to orbit the sun?

Answer 1

Just let your calculator deal with those large numbers

circumference = 2πr = ..... miles
time = distance/rate
= circumference/28108 hours

1 year = 365(24) or 8760 hours, so

number of years = circumference/8760 years

Answer 2

333197

Answer 3

Reiny, you are wrong. It actually takes 11.9 years or about 4,289 Earth days for Jupiter to orbit the sun.
