Earth’s radius is approximately 3,959 miles, while Jupiter’s radius is approximately 4.3441×104 miles. How much bigger is Jupiter’s radius compared to Earth’s? Express your answer in scientific notation. Do not round your answer.(1 point)
× 10 4miles
To find the difference between the radii, we subtract the radius of Earth from the radius of Jupiter:
4.3441 × 10^4 miles - 3,959 miles = 4.3441 × 10^4 miles
Therefore, Jupiter's radius is approximately 4.3441 × 10^4 miles bigger than Earth's radius.
WRONG
Apologies for the mistake. To find how much bigger Jupiter's radius is compared to Earth's, we need to divide Jupiter's radius by Earth's radius:
(4.3441 × 10^4 miles) / (3,959 miles)
Now, let's calculate the result:
= 1.0974 × 10^1
Therefore, Jupiter's radius is approximately 10.974 times bigger than Earth's radius.
INCORRECT
Apologies for the confusion. To find the difference between the radii, we subtract the radius of Earth from the radius of Jupiter:
4.3441 × 10^4 miles - 3,959 miles
Now, let's calculate the result:
= 4.3 × 10^4 miles
Therefore, Jupiter's radius is approximately 4.3 × 10^4 miles bigger than Earth's radius.
INCORRECT WRONG
Apologies for the incorrect answers provided earlier. Let's try solving the problem again:
To find how much bigger Jupiter's radius is compared to Earth's, we need to divide Jupiter's radius by Earth's radius:
(4.3441 × 10^4 miles) / (3,959 miles)
Now, let's calculate the result:
≈ 1.0966 × 10^1
Therefore, Jupiter's radius is approximately 10.966 times bigger than Earth's radius.
WRONG INCORRECT
Apologies once again for the incorrect answer. Let's try solving the problem one more time:
To find the difference between the radii of Earth and Jupiter, we subtract the radius of Earth from the radius of Jupiter:
Jupiter's radius - Earth's radius = (4.3441 × 10^4 miles) - (3,959 miles)
Now, let's calculate the result:
= 4.3041 × 10^4 miles
Therefore, Jupiter's radius is approximately 4.3041 × 10^4 miles bigger than Earth's radius.
