3. If Earth was 10 times farther away from the sun than it is now, which planet would it be closest to? (Assume all the planets are aligned with the sun and are on the same side of the sun.) Compare Earth's new distance to that planet. How far apart would they be in standard notation? How far apart in scientific notation? Show your work? Earth 149,600,000

The average of Earth's aphelion and perihelion (nearest and farthest
distances from the sun) is  149,553,262 km.

The average of Saturn's aphelion and perihelion (nearest and farthest
distances from the sun) is  1,426,666,422 km.

That's about 4.6% less than 10-times Earth's number.

The difference is  6.887 x 10⁷ km .  (rounded)
