Explanation
Correct answer: C.
Choice C is correct. The weight of an object on Venus is approximately of its weight on Earth. If an object weighs pounds on Earth, then the object's weight on Venus is approximately pounds. The same object's weight on Jupiter is approximately of its weight on Earth; therefore, the object weighs approximately pounds on Jupiter. The difference between the object's weight on Jupiter and the object's weight on Venus is approximately pounds. Therefore, an object that weighs pounds on Earth weighs more pounds on Jupiter than it weighs on Venus.
