What would the distance from the sun and size of mercury be if it were 1,000,000,000 smaller? PLEASE help i dont know how to do that or figure it out!
 
well the distance to the sun is 150million km so divide that by 1billion so 150m to the sun from the earth and do the same so mercury.
 
The size of a planet really has nothing to do with its distance from the sun.

If Mercury were 1 billionth the mass it is today (10^-9) it would still be 3 x 10^14 kg.
