Explanation

The Sun's diameter is approximately 109 times that of Earth. The Sun has a diameter of about 1.39 million kilometers (864,000 miles), while Earth's diameter is about 12,742 kilometers (7,918 miles). This means approximately 109 Earths could be lined up across the face of the Sun. The Sun is so large that about 1.3 million Earths could fit inside it by volume.
