Answer:

Earth's average distance from the Sun is
375 times more than is from the Moon.

Explanation:

Given the average distance of Earth from the Sun is
1.5*10^(8) kilometers.

Also, the approximate distance of Earth from the Moon is
4*10^(5) kilometers.

For this, we will divide the average distance of Earth from the Sun by approximate distance of Earth from the Moon.

So,


(1.5*10^(8))/(4*10^(5))=375\ km
