Question

How much bigger is the diameter of the earth compared to pluto?

Answer 1

5.36 times bigger

Step-by-step explanation:

The radius of the Earth is:

`r_e = 6371 km`

so its diameter is

`d_e = 2 r_2 = 12742 km`

The radius of Pluto is:

`r_p = 1188 km`

So its diameter is

`d_p = 2 r_p = 2376 km`

So the ratio between the two diameters is

`(d_e)/(d_p)=(12742 km)/(2376 km)=5.36`

So the diameter of the Earth is 5.36 times bigger than the diameter of Pluto.
