Solve the problem.Earth has a radius of approximately 6400 kilometers, and Saturn has a radius of approximately 60,300 kilometers (assuming that the planets are spherical). (i) Compute the surface area and volume for both planets. (ii) Which planet has the larger surface-area-to-volume ratio?

A. (i) Surface area of Earth is about 5.15 × 108 square kilometers, volume of Earth is about  cubic kilometers, surface area of Saturn is about  square kilometers, volume of Saturn is about  cubic kilometers
(ii) Saturn has the larger surface-area-to-volume ratio.
B. (i) Surface area of Earth is about  square kilometers, volume of Earth is about  cubic kilometers, surface area of Saturn is about 5.15 × 108 square kilometers, volume of Saturn is about  cubic kilometers
(ii) Saturn has the larger surface-area-to-volume ratio.
C. (i) Surface area of Earth is about 5.15 × 108 square kilometers, volume of Earth is about  cubic kilometers, surface area of Saturn is about  square kilometers, volume of Saturn is about  cubic kilometers
