It varies since both orbit the sun at different rates.

One astronomical unit (AU) is the average distance between the earth and sun. Jupiter is about 5 AU from the sun, while Saturn is about 10 AU. The distance between Jupiter and Saturn is 5 AU when they're both on the same side of the sun, and 15 AU when the sun is directly between them. The average distance would be sqr(5² + 10²) AU or about 11 AU.
