its B

Answer 2

for jupiter, it is (3.3x5.8)x10^23x10^2
(When multiplying exponents w/ same base, add the powers. ex: 10^2 x 10^4 = 10^6)

to find the mass of earth, divide the mass of jupiter by 3.2x10^2.

Answer 8

B is 1.914x10^26 (jupiters mass) / 3.2x10^2
1.914/3.2 = 0.0598125 --> 5.98125x10^24
