How many times is the distance from the Earth to the Sun greater than the distance from the Earth to the Moon?

The distance from the Earth to the Moon is 384,403 km.

Let’s round this distance to thousandths:

384,403 km = 384,000 km.

The distance from the Earth to the Sun is approximately 150,000,000 km.

To find the ratio of one distance to another, you need to divide the first by the second number:

150,000,000/384,000;

Reduce the fraction by a thousand:

150,000/384;

At 16:

9375/24 = 390.625 – this is how many times the distance from the Earth to the Sun is greater than the distance from the Earth to the Moon.

Answer: 390.625 times.
