    Answer:

    B. 7.94  × 10^8 miles

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given that

    Earth is approximately 9.3 × 107 miles from the sun.

    Saturn is approximately 8.87 × 108 miles from the sun.

    We need to find out how much farther is saturn from the sun than earth is

    So,

    Earth – Sun = 9.3 × 10^7 miles

    Saturn – Sun = 8.87 × 10^8 miles

    Now  

    = 8.87  × 10^8 – 9.3  × 10^7

    = 88.7  × 10^7 – 9.3  × 10^7  

    = 79.4  × 10^7

    = 7.94  × 10 ^8

    = 794,000,000 miles

    Hence, saturn is  7.94  × 10^8 miles farther from Sun than Earth is
