Sun: 109 times the diameter of the Earth.
Moon: About 1/4 the diameter of the Earth.
Note that the surface is proportional to the second power; and the volume, to the third power of the diameter. For example, the Sun's volume is more than a million times the Earth's volume.
You get yet other numbers if you compare masses, instead of diameter or volume.

Saturn - It is larger than both the earth and the moon
The sun is the largest in size compared to the moon and Earth. It has a diameter about 109 times that of Earth and is about 400 times farther away from Earth than the moon is.
The Moon of the Earth has a spherical shape regardless to its position compared to the Sun.

The moon appears bigger than the sun when viewed from Earth because it is much closer to us. The moon is about 400 times smaller than the sun, but it is also about 400 times closer to Earth, which creates the illusion of them appearing to be the same size in the sky.

Full moon occurs when the Moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun.
The Moon of the Earth has a spherical shape regardless to its position compared to the Sun.
The moon is much smaller than the sun. The sun is about 400 times larger in diameter than the moon.
the sun is the biggest, but the sun is just a big,big,big star as i know because im a scientist:)

The moon orbits the Earth because of the gravitational pull between the two bodies. This gravitational force is stronger between the Earth and the moon compared to the Sun and the moon, causing the moon to primarily orbit around the Earth.
The diameter of the sun is about 109 times the diameter of the earth,and about 400 times the diameter of the moon.
Not to be rude, but if you think that the moon is any larger than Earth, you're in deep water. The moon is smaller than the surface of Asia, as a matter of fact, making the moon roughly 1/4 the size of Earth.
