Answer:108x10 to the 2nd power

Step-by-step explanation: Given, the diameter of the Sun is 1.4 × 10⁹ m. The diameter of the Earth is 1.2756 × 10⁷ m. We have to compare the diameters by division. Therefore, the diameter of the Sun is nearly 110 times the diameter of the Earth, So i would say 108x10 squared
