While the mass of an object is the same everywhere, the weight of an object is not the same on different planets. An object has a weight of $170.00$ pounds on Earth and a weight of $186.32$ pounds on Neptune. The object’s weight on Jupiter is $252.8\%$ of its weight on Earth. If the object’s weight on Neptune is $r\%$ of its weight on Jupiter, which of the following is closest to the value of $r$?

A

B
