    Both distances are in the scientific notation:

    Earth - Sun = 9.3 * 10^7 miles

    Saturn - Sun = 8.87 * 10^8 miles

    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

    Answer: Saturn is 7.94 * 10^8 miles farther from Sun than Earth is.
