You know our sun is a star, but did you know that we get a little closer to it in summer? Yep!

And in winter we get a little farther from it. Why? Because of the way Earth tilts on its axis. But, on average, 93,000,000 miles separate us from the sun.

Write this number in WORD FORM: Ninety-three million

Write this number in EXPANDED FORM: 90,000,000 + 3,000,000

 

CHALLENGE: What would the number be if it were 10 times bigger? 930,000,000
