Answer
$7.783\times10^{8}$ kilometers
Work Step by Step
We are given that the approximate distance between Jupiter and the sun is $778,300,000$ kilometers.
Step 1: To write this number in scientific notation, we move the decimal point to the left until the original number is 7.783.
Step 2: Since the original number was greater than 10, we moved the decimal by 8 positive places. In other words, we will raise 10 to a power of 8.
Now, we write the product of the two numbers found in Step 1 and Step 2.
$7.783\times10^{8}$ kilometers
