To find how much bigger Jupiter's radius is compared to Earth's, we can divide Jupiter's radius by Earth's radius.
Jupiter's radius / Earth's radius = (4.3441×10^4 miles) / (3,959 miles)
To divide these quantities, we need to divide the numerical parts and subtract the exponents.
(4.3441×10^4 miles) / (3,959 miles) = 4.3441 / 3.959 × 10^4/10^0
Simplifying the fractions gives us:
= (4.3441 / 3.959) × 10^(4-0)
= 1.095 × 10^4
Therefore, Jupiter's radius is approximately 1.095 × 10^4 times bigger than Earth's radius.
