| Determine the day of the upper conjunction of Jupiter with the Sun in 1923, knowing the heliocentric longitudes for January 1, 1923, Jupiter is 214њ, and Earth is 98њ.
During the upper conjunction, the difference between the heliocentric longitudes of the Earth and the upper planet or the difference between the heliocentric longitudes of the lower planet and the Earth is equal to 180њ, i.e. generally (2n +1) 180њ. The average daily motion of the planets, see item 5. Based on this, you need to compose and solve an equation similar to the equation in problem 197.
Answer. Around November 22, 1923
