Answer:

Jupiter to Sun = 7.688 * 10⁸km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Earth to Moon = 3.844 * 10⁵km

Jupiter to Sun = 2 * 10³ times Earth to Moon

Required

Determine the average distance from Earth to Moon

Jupiter to Sun = 2 * 10³ times Earth to Moon

Substitute 3.844 * 10⁵km for Earth to Moon

Jupiter to Sun = 2 * 10³ * 3.844 * 10⁵km

Collect Like Terms

Jupiter to Sun = 2 * 3.844 * 10³ * 10⁵km

Jupiter to Sun = 7.688 * 10³ * 10⁵km

Jupiter to Sun = 7.688 * 10⁸km

Hence, option C answers the question
