To find out how much farther Venus is from Earth than the moon, we can subtract the distance from Earth to the moon from the distance from Earth to Venus.
Distance from Earth to Venus - Distance from Earth to the moon
= 4 x 10^7 km - 4 x 10^5 km
= 4 x 10^7 km - 4 x 10^5 km
= 4 x 10^7 km - 0.4 x 10^7 km
= 3.6 x 10^7 km
Therefore, Venus is approximately 3.6 x 10^7 km farther from Earth than the moon.
The approximate distance of the moon from Earth is 4 x 10^5
km and the average approximate distance from the Earth to Venus is 4 x 10^7
km. How much farther is Venus from Earth than the moon?

how many times farther
To determine how many times farther Venus is from Earth than the moon, we can divide the distance from Venus to Earth by the distance from the Moon to Earth.
Distance from Earth to Venus / Distance from Earth to the Moon
= (4 x 10^7 km) / (4 x 10^5 km)
= (4 x 10^7) / (4 x 10^5)
= 10^2
= 100
Therefore, Venus is approximately 100 times farther from Earth than the Moon.
Distance from Earth to Venus / Distance from Earth to the Moon
= (4 x 10^7 km) / (4 x 10^5 km)
= (4 x 10^7) / (4 x 10^5)
= 10^2
= 100
Therefore, Venus is approximately 100 times farther from Earth than the Moon.
