Mercury: 57.91 million kilometers
Venus: 108.21 million kilometers
Earth: 149.60 million kilometers
Mars: 227.92 million kilometers
Jupiter: 778.57 million kilometers
Saturn: 1.43 billion kilometers
Uranus: 2.87 billion kilometers
Neptune: 4.49 billion kilometers
Choose two of the distances of planets from the sun and divide them. Show your work.
Let's choose the distances of Earth from the sun (149.60 million kilometers) and Neptune from the sun (4.49 billion kilometers).
To find the division result, we divide the distance of Neptune by the distance of Earth:
4.49 billion kilometers / 149.60 million kilometers = 29.99
Therefore, the division of the distances of Neptune from the sun and Earth from the sun is approximately 29.99.
Let's choose Earth and Mars as the two planets for this calculation.
Earth is located at a distance of 149.60 million kilometers from the Sun, and Mars is located at a distance of 227.92 million kilometers from the Sun.
To find the division, we divide the distance of Mars from the Sun (227.92 million kilometers) by the distance of Earth from the Sun (149.60 million kilometers).
227.92 million km ÷ 149.60 million km = 1.52118
Therefore, the division of the distance of Mars from the Sun by the distance of Earth from the Sun is approximately 1.52118.
Sure! Let's choose Earth's distance from the Sun (149.60 million kilometers) and Neptun's distance from the Sun (4.49 billion kilometers).
To find the division, all we need to do is divide the distance of Neptun from the Sun by the distance of Earth from the Sun.
Let's calculate:
4.49 billion kilometers ÷ 149.60 million kilometers
To divide this, we need to make sure both numbers are in the same unit. Let's convert 4.49 billion kilometers to million kilometers:
4.49 billion kilometers = 4.49 billion × 1000 million kilometers
= 4,490 million kilometers
Now we can proceed with the division:
4,490 million kilometers ÷ 149.60 million kilometers
Dividing these two numbers, we get:
4,490 ÷ 149.60 ≈ 29.99
Thus, if we divide Earth's distance from the Sun by Neptun's distance from the Sun, the result is approximately 29.99.
Therefore, Earth is roughly 29.99 times closer to the Sun compared to Neptune.
