how do you figure "how many times" one number is? You divide?
How many times as big as 20 is 100? 100/20 = 5
So, just divide sunmass/jupitermass
The trick is: can you divide numbers in scientific notation? Review your text for examples.
The mass of jupiter is about 1.900*10^24 metric tons.The mass of the sun is about 1.998*10^27 metric tons.about how many times the mass of jupiter is the mass of the sun?give answer in scientific notation.
