Answer 1

Let's choose the distances of Earth from the sun and Mars from the sun.

The average distance of Earth from the sun is approximately 93 million miles.
The average distance of Mars from the sun is approximately 142 million miles.

To add these distances, we perform the following calculation:

93 million miles + 142 million miles = 235 million miles

Therefore, the sum of the distances of Earth and Mars from the sun is approximately 235 million miles.
