Answer 2

27,000 times.

Explanation:

We have been given that the mass of Earth’s Moon is about
`7* 10^(22)` kilograms. The Mass of Jupiter is about
`1.89* 10^(27)` kilograms.

To solve our given problem, we will divide mass of Jupiter by mass of Earth's moon.

`(1.89* 10^(27))/(7* 10^(22))`

Using property
`(a^m)/(a^n)=a^(m-n)`, we will get:

`(1.89)/(7)* 10^(27-22)`

`0.27* 10^(5)`

`0.27* 100000`

`27,000`

Therefore, the mass of Jupiter is 27,000 times the mass of Earth’s Moon.
