The force between sun and earth makes earth to move around it and the force between earth and moon makes moon to move around the earth. For the earth sun in the master and for the moon earth is the master. indirectly the super master of moon is the sun. the moon has to obey its master which in turn has to come around sun. so its revolving around the earth as well as sun.

The same way you can be on a plane and walk from one side to the other as the plane goes forward. And the earth revolves and spins. Everything in the universe is moving multiple directions when compared to other things.
But the moon isn't really revolving around the sun per se. The earth is and the moon is just along for the ride. The center of motion for earth-moon is just below the earth's surface. so that center is revolving around the sun.

You are walking to school with your buddy. As he walks along, you quickly walk around him in circles. You both get to school, but you have got there orbiting your buddy.
It aint difficult, is it?
