The distance between Jupiter and the Sun is 5.2 AU. What is the distance in millions of kilometers?

Respuesta :

Answer:

777.9 Mkm

Explanation:

(M = Mega = [tex]10^{6}[/tex])

AU is the Astronomical Unit for distance (1AU=149,597,870.691 km)

The total distance in km then is:

[tex]5.2 * 149,597,870.691 km = 777908927.593 km[/tex]

To give the result in millions, we use the prefix Mega:

[tex](\frac{1M}{10^{6} } ) * 777908927.593 km = 777.9 Mkm[/tex]
