The distance of planet Mercury from the Sun is approximately 5.8 ⋅ 107 kilometers, and the distance of planet Venus from the Sun is 1.1 ⋅ 108 kilometers. About how many more kilometers is the distance of Venus from the Sun than the distance of Mercury from the Sun?

Verified Answer :

mercury : 5.8 • 107 = 620.6
Venus : 1.1 • 108 =118.8

620.6 - 118.8 = 501.8

so Venus is about 501.8 kilometers from then sun then mercury

Answer: \(5.2\cdot10^7\ km\)


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The approx distance of planet Mercury from the Sun\(=5.8\cdot10^7\ km=58,000,000\ km\)

The distance of planet Venus from the Sun  \(=1.1\cdot10^8\ km=110,000,000\ km\)

We can see the

The difference distance of planet Venus from the Sun is more than the distance of planet Mercury from the Sun.

The difference between the distance = \(110,000,000-58,000,000=52,000,000=5.2\cdot10^7\ km\)

Hence, the distance of Venus from the Sun is \(5.2\cdot10^7\ km\) more than the distance of Mercury from the Sun.
