A definitive answer cannot be given to that question. As the planets orbit the sun, their distances from each other are constantly changing. At their closest Jupiter and Saturn would be about 403,000,000 miles from each other.

Jupiter is about 5 AU from the sun (five times earth's average distance). Saturn is roughly 10 AU. So when Jupiter and Saturn are lined up on the same side of the sun, the distance between them is minimized to 10-5 = 5 AU. When they are on opposite sides of the sun, Saturn is 10 + 5 = 15 AU from Jupiter.

On average, however, Jupiter and Saturn will be at roughly right angles to each other as they orbit the sun, making the distance sqr(102 + 52) = 11 astronomical units apart.

An exact answer cannot be given to that question. because of the orbit they do around the sun, their distances from each other are constantly changing. At their closest Jupiter and Saturn would be about 403,000,000 miles from each other.

Around 741 million kilometres.

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.

1 AU is nearly 150 million km, so 11 AU is about 1.65 billion km.

The distance between the planets Jupiter and Saturn are 403,428,204 miles, or 649,254,760 kilometers. This can also be written as 4.34 astronomical units.
