Explanation

The average distance from the Earth to the Sun is approximately 93 million miles (about 150 million kilometers). This distance is defined as one Astronomical Unit (AU) and varies slightly throughout the year due to Earth's elliptical orbit, ranging from about 91.4 million miles at perihelion (closest) to 94.5 million miles at aphelion (farthest). The average of approximately 93 million miles is the standard answer.
