At Closest point: 365 Million miles
At Farthest point: 601 Million miles
Explanation:
We know that planets are continuously orbiting the Sun. So, by this phenomena we can conclude the nearest and farthest point between the planets.
The Earth when closest to Jupiter, then its distance is:
365,000,0 miles or 588,000,0 kms.
In Astronomical Units(AU) = 0.03926597065 AU
