#1"AU" =9.3xx10^7 " miles"#

Explanation:

The distance between the sun and the earth is known as 1 astronomical unit or 1AU.

This is equivalent to 93 million miles.

#93,000,000 " miles" = 9.3xx10^7 " miles"#

You get the #7# because there are #7# digits after the first digit, #9#, and you need to include the #3# somewhere so you simply put that after the decimal point.
