Titan, a moon of Saturn, is the largest moon, at 2900 kilometers radius.
Ganymede, of Jupiter, is second, at 2640 kilometers radius.

No. Titan was originally though to be larger than Ganymede, but close inspection revealed that Titan is smaller than originally thought. Titan appears somewhat larger than it really is due to a dense haze in its atmosphere.
The moon titan belongs to the planet, Saturn
In our solar system, the known objects larger than the moon are the sun, all eight planets, and the moons Ganymede, Titan, Callisto, and Io.
Jupiter's moon Ganymede is the largest. It is the largest moon in the Solar System. Ganymede's equatorial diameter is 5,262 km. This is about 2% larger than Saturn's moon Titan. Pluto's equatorial diameter is only 2,274 km. The Earth's Moon has an equatorial diameter of 3,476 km. Mercury's equatorial diameter is 4,880 km. It is smaller than Ganymede but more massive.
Neither. Titan is the largest moon of Saturn but the second largest in the solar system. The largest moon in the solar system is Ganymede, which orbits Jupiter.
Ganymede is bigger than Titan. Ganymede is the largest moon in the solar system and is even bigger than the planet Mercury. Titan is the largest moon of Saturn and is the second largest moon in the solar system.

Yes, Ganymede is the largest natural satellite in our solar system. It is bigger than Pluto and Mercury, although it has a lower mass.
No. Titan was originally though to be larger than Ganymede, but close inspection revealed that Titan is smaller than originally thought. Titan appears somewhat larger than it really is due to a dense haze in its atmosphere.

Ganymede
The two Jovian planet satellites that are larger in size than mercury are Ganymede and Titan. Ganymede is the moon of Jupiter and Titan is the moon of Saturn.
No. Titan is the second-largest moon in the solar system with a mean radius of 2,575 kilometers; only Ganymede is larger. Our moon ranks fifth with a mean radius of 1,737 km.
Jupiter's moon, Ganymede Titan is the largest of Saturn's moons.
Both Titan and Ganymede are larger than Mercury and Pluto.
Our moon, the earths moon, is the fifth largest moon in the solar system. Ganymede is the largest moon (a moon of Jupiter), then Titan is the second largest (moon of Saturn), then third is Callisto (another moon of Jupiter) and the fourth largest is Io (another of Jupiters moons).
By size, it's the smallest planet. In fact, Jupiter's moon Ganymede and Saturn's moon Titan are both bigger than Mercury.
