Earth's mean distance from the sun is 9.3 x 10 exponent 7 miles. This distance is called the astronomical unit (AU). Jupiter is 5.2 AU from the sun. Find the distance in miles from Jupiter to the sun.
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Jupiter distance - sun distance = 5.2AU-1AU = 4.2AU
\n" ); document.write( "= 4.2(9.3x10^7)
\n" ); document.write( "= 3.906x10^8 miles
\n" ); document.write( "=============
