#152,000# megameters

Explanation:

We know that #1 \ "megameter"= 1000 \ "kilometers"#.

So, #152 \ "million kilometers"# will equal to

#152,000,000color(red)cancelcolor(black)"km"*(1 \ "Mm")/(1000color(red)cancelcolor(black)"km")=152,000 \ "Mm"#

So, the greatest distance between the Earth and the sun will be #152,000# megameters.
