Saturn is much larger than Earth, as are all the gas giant planets.
How large depends on whether you are comparing the apparent size or diameter, the mass or the volume.
1. Linear Size: The width or radius of Saturn is 9.5 times that of Earth.
2 Volume: You could fit 764 Earth's inside of Saturn.
3. Mass: Saturn has 95 times more mass than Earth.

∙ 10y agoSaturn is the second largest planet in our solar system, but the only one whose average density is less than that of water. It is about 100 times as massive as the earth.
If you imagine the earth as a ball with the circumference of a dime (about the size of a marble), in comparison Saturn would be the size of a soccer ball (a football outside America).
The diameter of Saturn is 120,500 km (75 thousand miles). Earth's diameter, in comparison, is just under 13,000 km (8000 miles).
