How many times greater is the distance from the Sun to the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy than the distance from the Sun to Jupiter? Distance from sun to Jupiter is 12^8 miles

Respuesta :

Distance from the Sun to the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy =     [tex] 12^{16} [/tex]   miles

Distance from the Sun to Jupiter =      [tex]12^8[/tex]    miles

Distance from the Sun to the Canis Major Dwarf Galay    
------------------------------------------------------------------------------ =
                Distance from the Sun to Jupiter

[tex] \frac{ 12^{16} }{ 12^{8} } = 12^{16-8} = 12^{8} [/tex]

Answer: 12^8
