Answer 1

Mars

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between Sun and Saturn = 1427 Million km

one sixth of the distance between Sun and Saturn will be

`= (1427* 10^(6) )/(6) km`

= 237.83 Million km

From the given data it is evident that the right answer will be Mars.

As the distance between Mars and Sun is 228 million km which is the closest value to the one sixth of the distance between Sun and Saturn.

Answer 2

The table shows us the data regarding the sun and solar system. Here the planets with their average distance from the sun and the time taken by the sun rays to reach them are given.

• The Sun appears to be 1,427 million kilometers away from the gas giant Saturn. Thus is the sixth planet and is six-time that of mars that are located between Jupiter and earth.

• Planet mars is a rocky planet and has an average distance of 228 million km.

Hence the option 3 is correct.
