The average clalculated distance from the earth to the moon is about 238,855 miles or 3,84,400km. That is a distance of about thirty earth. We specify it as the average distance because the moon is encircling the earth, and the orbit is not a perfect circle. So, the distance can vary in some areas. For, e.g., the farthest distance of the moon from the earth is 2,52,088 miles, while the shortest distance is 2,25,623 miles.
