mercury:35.9 million miles. venus:67.2 million miles earth:93million miles. mars:128.4 million miles Jupiter:483 million miles Saturn:885.5 million miles Uranus:32,000 miles Neptune:2.8 billion miles

Question

Choose two of the distances of planets from the sun and add them. Show your work.   

Answer 1

Let's choose the distances of Earth and Mars from the Sun to add them together.

1. Distance of Earth from the Sun: 93 million miles
2. Distance of Mars from the Sun: 128.4 million miles

Now, we will add the two distances:

\[ 93 \text{ million miles} + 128.4 \text{ million miles} = 221.4 \text{ million miles} \]

So, the total distance of Earth and Mars from the Sun is 221.4 million miles.

Answer 2

Choose two of the distances of planets from the sun and subtract them.

Answer 3

Let's choose the distances of Jupiter and Venus from the Sun to subtract them.

1. Distance of Jupiter from the Sun: 483 million miles
2. Distance of Venus from the Sun: 67.2 million miles

Now, we will subtract the distance of Venus from the distance of Jupiter:

\[ 483 \text{ million miles} - 67.2 \text{ million miles} = 415.8 \text{ million miles} \]

So, the result of subtracting the distance of Venus from Jupiter is 415.8 million miles.

Answer 4

 Choose two of the distances of planets from the sun and multiply them.

Answer 5

Let's choose the distances of Mercury and Earth from the Sun to multiply them.

1. Distance of Mercury from the Sun: 35.9 million miles
2. Distance of Earth from the Sun: 93 million miles

Now, we will multiply the two distances:

\[ 35.9 , \text{million miles} \times 93 , \text{million miles} = 3,344.7 , \text{million miles}^2 \]

So, the product of the distances of Mercury and Earth from the Sun is 3,344.7 million miles².

Answer 6

Choose two of the distances of planets from the sun and add them. Show your work.  Just do the first on again you did but show work

Answer 7

Sure! Let's choose the distances of Earth and Mars from the Sun again.

1. Distance of Earth from the Sun: 93 million miles
2. Distance of Mars from the Sun: 128.4 million miles

Now, let's show the addition step by step:

Step 1: Write down the distances

\[ \text{Earth} = 93 , \text{million miles} \]

\[ \text{Mars} = 128.4 , \text{million miles} \]

Step 2: Align the numbers for addition

   93.0
+ 128.4

Step 3: Add the numbers starting from the rightmost column

• Thousandths: \(0 + 4 = 4\)
• Hundredths: \(3 + 8 = 11\) (write down 1 and carry over 1)
• Tenths: \(9 + 2 + 1 (\text{carry}) = 12\) (write down 2 and carry over 1)
• Units: \(1 (\text{carry}) + 1 = 2\)

Step 4: Write the result

Putting it all together, we perform the addition:

   93.0
+ 128.4
--------
  221.4

Final Answer

So, the total distance of Earth and Mars from the Sun is 221.4 million miles.

Answer 8

Choose two of the distances of planets from the sun and multiply them. Show your work. 

Answer 9

Let's choose the distances of Saturn and Neptune from the Sun to multiply.

1. Distance of Saturn from the Sun: 885.5 million miles
2. Distance of Neptune from the Sun: 2.8 billion miles (which is equivalent to 2800 million miles)

Now, we will show the multiplication step by step.

Step 1: Write down the distances

\[ \text{Saturn} = 885.5 , \text{million miles} \]

\[ \text{Neptune} = 2800 , \text{million miles} \]

Step 2: Set up the multiplication

\[ 885.5 \times 2800 \]

Step 3: Perform the multiplication

We'll multiply as follows:

\[ 885.5 \times 2800 \]

To make the multiplication easier, we can separate it into smaller parts:

\[ 885.5 \times 2800 = 885.5 \times (2000 + 800) \]

Now we'll calculate each part:

1. 885.5 × 2000:

\[ 885.5 \times 2000 = 1771000 , \text{(shift the decimal 3 places to the right)} \]

2. 885.5 × 800:

\[ 885.5 \times 800 = 708400 , \text{(shift the decimal 3 places to the right)} \]

Step 4: Add the two results

Now we sum them:

\[ 1771000 + 708400 = 2479400 \]

Step 5: Write the final result

The result of multiplying the distances of Saturn and Neptune from the Sun is:

\[ 885.5 , \text{million miles} \times 2800 , \text{million miles} = 2479400 , \text{million miles}^2 \]

Final Answer

So, the product of the distances of Saturn and Neptune from the Sun is 2,479,400 million miles² or 2.4794 billion million miles².

Answer 10

Choose two of the distances of planets from the sun and divide them. Show your work.  

Answer 11

Let’s choose the distances of Jupiter and Earth from the Sun to divide.

1. Distance of Jupiter from the Sun: 483 million miles
2. Distance of Earth from the Sun: 93 million miles

We will divide the distance of Jupiter by the distance of Earth.

Step 1: Set up the division

\[ \frac{483 , \text{million miles}}{93 , \text{million miles}} \]

Step 2: Perform the division

Now we divide 483 by 93. We can do this long division step by step.

1. Divide the first two digits: 93 into 483

   • 93 goes into 483 approximately 5 times (since \( 93 \times 5 = 465 \)).

   We write down 5 and subtract:

   \[ 483 - 465 = 18 \]

2. Bring down the next digit: Since there are no more digits in 483, we consider the next part. In decimal terms, we can treat this as 180 (considering two decimal places).

3. Now divide again: 93 into 180

   • 93 goes into 180 approximately 1 time (since \( 93 \times 1 = 93 \)).

   We write down 1 and subtract:

   \[ 180 - 93 = 87 \]

4. Bring down another 0 to get 870.

5. Divide again: 93 into 870

   • 93 goes into 870 approximately 9 times (since \( 93 \times 9 = 837 \)).

   We write down 9 and subtract:

   \[ 870 - 837 = 33 \]

6. Bring down another 0 to get 330.

7. Divide again:

   • 93 goes into 330 approximately 3 times (since \( 93 \times 3 = 279 \)).

   We write down 3 and subtract:

   \[ 330 - 279 = 51 \]

Now, putting this all together:

\[ \frac{483}{93} \approx 5.19 \]

Final Result

The division of the distance of Jupiter by the distance of Earth is approximately:

\[ \frac{483 , \text{million miles}}{93 , \text{million miles}} \approx 5.19 \]

This means Jupiter is approximately 5.19 times further from the Sun than Earth.
