To find how many times larger the diameter of the Sun is than the diameter of the Earth, we need to divide the diameter of the Sun by the diameter of the Earth:

(1.3 x 10^6 km) / (1.3 x 10^4 km)

Simplifying:

= (1.3 / 1.3) x (10^6 / 10^4)

= 100

Therefore, the diameter of the Sun is 100 times larger than the diameter of the Earth.

I explained step by step I hope it was helpful
