Jupiter has a mass of 1.898 × 10²⁷ kg and mass of Earth is 5.98 × 10²⁴ kg. Approximately how much greater is Jupiter’s mass than Earth’s?

Answer 1

(1.898 × 10²⁷) - (5.98 × 10²⁴)

= (1,898 × 10²⁴) - (5.98 × 10²⁴)

= 1,892.02 × 10²⁴

= 1.89202 × 10²⁷

Jupiter's mass is about 1.892 × 10²⁷ kg greater than Earth's mass.
