The average distance from earth to Mars is 2.25x10^8km and the distance from earth to Neptune is 4.3514x10^9km how much further is Neptune from earth than mars express your answer in scientific notation do not round your answer
To find the difference in distance between Neptune and Mars, we need to subtract the distance from Earth to Mars from the distance from Earth to Neptune:
4.3514x10^9 km - 2.25x10^8 km
To subtract these values, we need to express both distances in the same power of 10. Let's convert the distance from Earth to Mars to 10^9:
2.25x10^8 km = 0.225x10^9 km
Now we can subtract:
4.3514x10^9 km - 0.225x10^9 km
This gives us the result of:
4.1264x10^9 km
Therefore, Neptune is 4.1264x10^9 km further from Earth than Mars.
