1) The astronomical unit is the mean distance from Earth to the Sun only. However you can measure the distance to Mars in these units.
2) Unfortunately, that distance keeps changing as the planets move in their orbits.
The average distance between Earth and Mars is about 225 million kilometers, or 1.52 astronomical units. The distance varies due to the elliptical orbits of both planets.
This distance is continuously varying as the two planets orbit the Sun. The minimum distance is about 0.5 au. That's because the (average) distance of Earth from the Sun is 1 au and the (average) distance of Mars from the Sun is 1.52 au.
If I may interpret your question: 1 astronomical unit is the average distance from the sun to Earth = roughly 93,000,000 miles. The average Mars-Sun distance is about 1.52 AU, so Mars is 1.52 X 93,000,000 = 141,360,000 miles from the sun.
The average distance from the Sun to Mars is about 225 million kilometers, or 1.52 astronomical units (AU). However, since both Mars and Earth are in elliptical orbits, this distance can vary based on their positions in their respective orbits.

Mars is 1.5 astronomical units away from sun while Neptune is 30 astronomical units away.
On average 1.52, but plus or minus 0.14.
This distance is continuously varying as the two planets orbit the Sun. The minimum distance is about 0.5 au. That's because the (average) distance of Earth from the Sun is 1 au and the (average) distance of Mars from the Sun is 1.52 au.
The average distance between Mars and the Sun is about 1.5 astronomical units (AU), where 1 AU is the average distance between the Earth and the Sun. This distance can vary because both Mars and Earth have elliptical orbits.
If I may interpret your question: 1 astronomical unit is the average distance from the sun to Earth = roughly 93,000,000 miles. The average Mars-Sun distance is about 1.52 AU, so Mars is 1.52 X 93,000,000 = 141,360,000 miles from the sun.
It is about the same distance from Denton to Mars as it is from Earth to Mars, given that Denton, Texas, remains on earth at the present time. The earth/mars distance varies as these bodies orbit the sun. Sometimes they are both on the same side, and the distance between is minimized. Sometimes they are on opposite sides of the sun, and the distance is maximized. The average distance is roughly 3 astronomical units.
The average distance from the Sun to Mars is about 225 million kilometers, or 1.52 astronomical units (AU). However, since both Mars and Earth are in elliptical orbits, this distance can vary based on their positions in their respective orbits.
