Use the table. How does Mars's orbit compare with Earth's?
Jupiter orbits at 5.20 AU with an 11.86-year period, while Saturn orbits at 9.58 AU with a 29.45-year period. What pattern does this show?
Use the table of four planets. Which planet has the longest orbital period?
Mars's orbital period is 1.881 years and Mercury's is 0.2408 years. What is to one decimal place?
