Final answer:
To express Venus's diameter compared to the Sun's diameter as a decimal, divide the percent value by 100. Venus's diameter is approximately 1/200 of the Sun's diameter.
Step-by-step explanation:
To express the percent of Venus's diameter compared to the Sun's diameter as a decimal, we divide the value in the table by 100. For Venus, the percent is 0.87%. Dividing this by 100 gives us 0.0087 as the decimal representation of the percent.
To find the planet whose diameter is approximately 1/200 of the Sun's diameter, we can compare the values in the table. Since the Sun's diameter is about 100 times larger than Earth's, 1/200 of the Sun's diameter would be about half of Earth's diameter, which corresponds to
