Question

the Earth has an average distance from the Sun of 1.5* 10 to the 8th power kilometers and the Earth has an approximate distance from the Moon of 4.0 x 10 to the 5th km how many times greater is Earth's average distance from the Sun than is from the Moon

Answer 1

Answer:

Earth's average distance from the Sun is $375$ times more than is from the Moon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the average distance of Earth from the Sun is $1.5\times10^{8}$ kilometers.

Also, the approximate distance of Earth from the Moon is $4\times10^{5}$ kilometers.

For this, we will divide the average distance of Earth from the Sun by approximate distance of Earth from the Moon.

So,

$\frac{1.5\times10^{8}}{4\times10^{5}}=375\ km$
