Answer:
'The closest distance between Earth and Jupiter is greater than the closest distance between Earth and Mercury by approximately 7.66 times'.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that,
Distance between Earth and Jupiter = 5.9 × 10⁸ kilometers
Distance between Earth and Mercury = 7.7 × 10⁷ = 0.77 × 10⁸ kilometers
So, we see that,
5.9 × 10⁸ > 0.77 × 10⁸
Also, Ratio =
That is,
'The closest distance between Earth and Jupiter is greater than the closest distance between Earth and Mercury by approximately 7.66 times'.
