Answer:
269,000
Explanation:
The distance between Proxima Centauri and the Sun, d₁₁ = 4.246 light years
The distance between Earth and the Sun, d₂ = 1.58 × 10⁻⁵ light years
The ratio of the distances are;
d₁/d₂ = 4.246/(1.58 × 10⁻⁵) = 268734.177215 ≈ 269,000 times
Therefore, Proxima Centauri is approximately 269,000 times further from the Sun than the Earth is from the Sun
