Ben made the following bar graph shown to represent the relative distances of four different astronomical bodies from Earth.

The title of the bar graph is Distance of Bodies in Space from Earth. Four bars are labeled A, B, C, and D. Bar C is the shortest. Bar D is about three times the size of bar C. Bar A is about six times the size of bar C. Bar B is about eight times the size of bar C.

If A represents the sun, which of the following could be represented by C and D?

C could be Venus, and D could be the moon.
C could be Uranus, and D could be the moon.
C could be the moon, and D could be Venus.
C could be Uranus, and D could be Venus.

C could be the moon, and D could be Venus.

Explanation:

Now let's take in consideration that the bar graph represents the distances of the different astronomical bodies relative to the Earth.

You have the following astronomical bodies:

Sun

Moon

Venus

Uranus

Now think about the actual distances of these bodies from Earth.

Among all, the moon is the closest, so this means that the shortest bar would be the moon.

Moon is C.

Again, let's see what else is given. It says that A is the sun, so it is about six times the size of bar C, while Bar D is three times the size of bar C. This makes Bar D the second shortes bar. So among the bodies given, Venus is the next closest. This means that Bar D is venus.

C could be the moon, and D could be Venus.

I just took the test.
