Solution

To find out how many times greater the surface area of Jupiter is than the surface area of Mercury, you need to divide the surface area of Jupiter by the surface area of Mercury.

The surface area of Jupiter is 6.142 × 10^10 km^2 and the surface area of Mercury is 74,800,000 km^2.

So, the calculation is (6.142 × 10^10) / 74,800,000.

When you do this calculation, you get approximately 820.587.

So, the surface area of Jupiter is approximately 820.587 times greater than the surface area of Mercury.

To give your answer in standard form to 3 significant figures, you would write it as 8.21 × 10^2.
