Answer: The mass of the sun is 3.51 x 10^3 times greater.
Step-by-step explanation:
X= Mass of Sun/ Mass of Saturn
X= 1.998 x 10^30 / 5.69 x 10^26
1.998/ 5.69 = .351
10^30 / 10^26 = 10^4
You want to move the decimal a value so you would subtract 1 from 4
3.51 x 10^3
The mass of the Sun is 3.511 × 10³ (in scientific notation) times more than the mass of Saturn.
The division means the separation of something into different parts, sharing of something among different people, places, etc.
The sun’s mass is [tex]1.998 * 10^{30}[/tex] kg.
Saturn's mass is [tex]5.69 * 10^{26}[/tex] kg.
Let the mass of the Sun be X times more than the mass of the Saturn mass.
The equation that can be written as
1.998 × 10³⁰ = X × 5.69 × 10²⁶
On simplifying, the value f X will be
[tex]\rm X = \dfrac{1.998 * 10^{30}}{5.69*10^{26}}\\\\X = 3511.42 \\\\X = 3.511 * 10^3[/tex]
The mass of the Sun is 3.511 × 10³ (in scientific notation) times more than the mass of Saturn.
