The mean radius of Earth is 6,371.0 kilometres and the mean radius of Earth’s Moon is 1,737.5 kilometres.

What is the approximate difference in the mean circumferences, in kilometers, of Earth
and Earth’s Moon? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a kilometer.

Respuesta :

Answer: 29,113.2 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Circumference = 2 x π x radius

Replacing with the values given:

Earth's mean circumference = 2 π 6,371.0 = 40,030.2 km

Earth's moon mean circumference = 2 π 1,737,5= 10,917 km

Now, we have to subtract Earth's moon mean circumference to Earth's mean circumference:

40,030.2- 10,917 =29,113.2 km
