Question

use the data to answer the question below.
is the following statement about our solar system true or false? earths volume is more than ten times as great as marss volume.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify Earth's volume

Earth's volume is $1.08\times 10^{12}\text{ km}^3$.

Step2: Identify Mars's volume

Mars's volume is $1.63\times 10^{11}\text{ km}^3$.

Step3: Calculate 10 times Mars's volume

$10\times(1.63\times 10^{11})=(10\times1.63)\times 10^{11}=16.3\times 10^{11}=1.63\times 10^{12}\text{ km}^3$.

Step4: Compare

Since $1.08\times 10^{12}<1.63\times 10^{12}$, Earth's volume is less than 10 - times Mars's volume.

Answer:

false
