1st, you need to know how far Jupiter is from the sun. 2nd, you know. Answer: it varies.
Because both planets orbit the sun, the distance varies, since at some times both will be on the same side of the sun, but at other times, on opposite sides.
When Jupiter and Earth are closest, Jupiter is 390,682,810 miles (628,743,036 km) from Earth. The Earth is 93,000,000 miles (149,668,992 km) from the Sun. Jupiter is 483,682,810 miles (778,412,028 km) from the Sun. At our most distant, Jupiter is 576,682,810 miles (928,081,020 km) from the Earth, when the two planets are on opposite sides of the Sun.
Measured in Astronomical Units (AU), the distance between Earth and Jupiter varies from 4.2 AU to 6.2 AU.
An Astronomical Unit is approximately 93,000,000 miles (149,668,992 km), or the mean distance from the Earth to the Sun. Therefore, the distance between the Earth and Jupiter can be anywhere between slightly over four times or six times the distance from the Earth to the Sun.
The calculations are very close, but approximate, and also depend upon the slightly varying mass of the Sun, which has an effect on orbital distances.
The distance varies greatly as the two planets orbit the Sun.
The closest the two get is about 588 million kilometers, and this is only when Jupiter is its closest to the Sun, Earth is at its farthest, and the two are lined up on the same side of the Sun (i.e. Jupiter is in opposition).
If they are on directly opposite sides of the Sun, which they are every 399 Earth days, they can be as far as 968 million kilometers apart.
Jupiter is about 5 AU (astronomical units) from the Sun; Earth is 1 AU from the Sun, this makes the distance between Earth and Jupiter vary between 4 and 6 AU, depending on whether Jupiter is in conjunction or in opposition.
Both planets orbit the sun and the distance between them varies greatly, since at some times both are on the same side of the sun, but at other times, on opposite sides.

Jupiter is 360,972,764,000 miles from the sun.
Edit: The previous answer is not correct. When Jupiter and Earth are closest, Jupiter is approximately 390,682,810 miles (628,743,036 km) from Earth. The Earth is 93,000,000 miles (149,668,992 km) from the Sun. Jupiter is 483,682,810 miles (778,412,028 km) from the Sun.

1st, you need to know how far Jupiter is from the sun. 2nd, you know. Answer: it varies.
if your talking about the ones that Saturn and Jupiter have well then earth has no rings around it
No. The gravity of Jupiter more than twice as strong as that on Earth.
Jupiter is the 5th planet out from the Sun. The planet Mars (in 4th place) is right in between our planet Earth and Jupiter. Is 1000 times bigger than earth!
*390,682,810 miles. If the Earth and Jupiter are not in a line with the sun with the sun in the middle, however, this answer will be incorrect.
Jupiter takes 11.86 years to orbit once around the sun, which is 4332 days.

At its closest, Jupiter is 588.42 million kilometers from Earth, or 32.7 light minutes. At its furthest, with Jupiter on the far side of the Sun form Earth, Jupiter is 53.8 light minutes away.
It is because Earth is near to the Sun and Jupiter is far so when Earth turns 11 turns (years) it will be 1 year in Jupiter...
because you are to far.
Jupiter. By Far
Yes, Jupiter is about 5 times as far from the Sun.
Impossible. If true, it would have to be the other way around, whereas Earth will be Jupiter's moon. This is because the gravitational field of Jupiter is FAR greater than Earth's.
Because you are so far away from Jupiter, and so much closer to the Earth.
Jupiter, the biggest planet in the solar system, has far more gravity than the Earth. Only the Sun has more gravity than Jupiter in our solar system.
It is 93 million (average) miles from the sun
