It changes, because the orbits are not circles.
For the Earth:
Aphelion distance: 152,097,701 km (94,509,130 miles)
Perihelion distance: 147,098,074 km (91,402,725 miles).
That's the distance from the center of the Earth to the center of the Sun.
Wikipedia is a good starting place for information like this.

It changes, because the orbits are not circles. Its ovalish.
For the Earth:
Aphelion distance(Farthest): 152,097,701 km (94,509,130 miles)
Perihelion distance(Shortest): 147,098,074 km (91,402,725 miles).
That's the distance from the center of the Earth to the center of the Sun.( or an estimate)

The Earth is 93 million miles away from the sun. Any closer and we would fry. I don't know the other planets but you can go to space.com to find out.

Look on the right side where it says distance under orbital characteristics.
Or do like the 1st poster said and just go to google and type that exact same question (without the ellipsis...) and you will get a few million answers in 0.23 seconds.

And incidentally, this distance is known as an astronomical unit, or AU.
