The mean distance is 3.844*10^5 kilometres.
As far as we know, we only use scientific notation here on Earth, for the computing of very large numbers (like the distance between planets) or very small numbers (like the radius of a hydrogen atom).
As far as it is possible to tell, neither of the two are in scientific notation.
The average distance from Earth to the Sun is approximately 1.496 x 10^8 kilometers.
From earth to the moon.
1.513325783 x 109 Km at aphelion
34,646,418 miles
93,000,000 miles,or in Scientific Notation:9.3 *10 miles.
The Moon is about 384,399 kilometers from the Earth. This is about 0.245 million miles. In scientific notation, this is 2.45 x 105 miles, or 2.45 x 10-1 million miles.

Earth, by far.
For all practical purposesUranus is just as far from Earth's moon as it is from the Earth.
The average distance from Earth to the Sun is approximately 1.496 x 10^8 kilometers.
because the earth is far from the moon
"Distance" means how far two object are from one another. In this case, how far the Moon is from Earth, or how far the Sun is from Earth.
We have been on the moon and it has made no difference to us so far. However if we were to be able to economically survive on the moon it is reasonable to think that in an alien environment scientific discoveries could be made that would not have happened on the Earth.
It is not necessary, but it is far easier to work with very small or very large numbers if you use scientific notation. For example, to calculate gravitational attraction between the earth and some object, you need to use the mass of the earth in the equation. It is far simpler to use 5.972*104 kilograms rather than 5,972,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kilograms. It is easy to make a mistake in the long form.
