Answer

3.8996 x 10² times

Step-by-step explanation

If the mass of the planet Jupiter is approximately 1.8981 x 10²⁷ kg, and the mass of the planet Venus is approximately 4.8673 x 10²⁴ kg, therefore the number of times larger the mass of Jupiter than the mass of Venus will be:


\frac{Mass\text{ }of\text{ }Jupiter}{Mass\text{ }of\text{ }Venus}=\frac{1.8981*10²⁷\text{ }kg}{4.8673*10²⁴\text{ }kg}=3.8996*10^2\text{ }times
