Question

Earth’s radius is approximately 3,959 miles, while Jupiter’s radius is approximately 4.3441×10^4 miles. How much bigger is Jupiter’s radius compared to Earth’s? Express your answer in scientific notation. Do not round your answer.

Answer 1

that wrong

Answer 2

what is it?

Answer 3

Subtract 4.66×10−5−7.34×10−7(1 point) Responses −2.68×102 negative 2.68 times 10 squared 4.5866×10−5 4.5866 times 10 superscript negative 5 baseline −4.5866×10−5 negative 4.5866 times 10 superscript negative 5 baseline 2.68×102

Answer 4

To find how much bigger Jupiter's radius is compared to Earth's, we can divide Jupiter's radius by Earth's radius.

Jupiter's radius / Earth's radius = (4.3441×10^4 miles) / (3,959 miles)

To divide these quantities, we need to divide the numerical parts and subtract the exponents.

(4.3441×10^4 miles) / (3,959 miles) = 4.3441 / 3.959 × 10^4/10^0

Simplifying the fractions gives us:

= (4.3441 / 3.959) × 10^(4-0)

= 1.095 × 10^4

Therefore, Jupiter's radius is approximately 1.095 × 10^4 times bigger than Earth's radius.

Answer 5

Apologies for the mistake. Let's calculate again.

To find how much bigger Jupiter's radius is compared to Earth's, we can divide Jupiter's radius by Earth's radius.

Jupiter's radius / Earth's radius = (4.3441×10^4 miles) / (3,959 miles)

To divide these quantities, we need to divide the numerical parts and subtract the exponents.

(4.3441×10^4 miles) / (3,959 miles) = 4.3441 / 3.959 × 10^(4-3,959)

Simplifying the fractions gives us:

= 1.096 × 10^(4 - 3,959)

Now, let's subtract the exponents:

= 1.096 × 10^(-3,955)

Therefore, Jupiter's radius is approximately 1.096 × 10^(-3,955) times bigger than Earth's radius.
