Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer to your question is a = 1.1; b = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Earth's mass = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg

Venus' mass = 4.87 x 10²⁴ kg

Process

1.- Subtract the Venus' mass to the earth's mass.

                    5.97

                  -  4.87

                     1.1

2.- Write the result in scientific notation

                      1.1 x 10²⁴ kg

3.- Result

a = 1.1

b = 24
