The moon travels around the Earth in an elliptical orbit with the Earth at one focus. The major and minor axes of the orbit have lengths of 768,800 kilometers and 767,640 kilometers, respectively. Find the greatest and smallest distances (the apogee and perigee), respectively from Earth’s center to the moon’s center.

Greatest Distance: 405, 508 km Smallest Distance: 363, 292 km

Greatest Distance: 415, 508 km Smallest Distance: 343, 292 km

Greatest Distance: 563, 392 km Smallest Distance: 353, 291 km

Greatest Distance: 553, 693 km Smallest Distance: 413, 292 km
