This number actually varies because the Earth is on an elliptical orbit around the sun, instead of a perfect circular orbit which would keep us at a steady distance from the sun. However, the average distance is just under 93 million miles or 1 Astronomical Unit (AU) or 8.31 light-minutes.

They are approximately 93,000,000 miles or 150,000,000 kilometers apart. it can also e expressed with an AU or Astronomical Unit. An AU is the distance between earth and the sun which is liek i said earlier 93,000,000 miles.
AU ca also describe disatances liek mercury or venus too. Mercury is .3 AU's away from the sun Venus is .7 AU's away, Earth is 1 AU away, and Mars is 1.5 AU's away and jupter is 5 away.
