Answer:

Saturn is about 1.429 x10^9 m from the sun.

Explanation:

1 429 000 km = 1 429 000 000 m

Scientific notation helps to write large numbers in a small way. In scientific notation you place the decimal point after the first number, then you multiply it by ten (10^x), where x is the number of decimal places where the decimal point should be.

1.429 x 10^9 = 1.429 x 10 x 10x 10x 10 x 10x 10x 10x 10x 10 = 1 429 000 000
