Explanation:
Parsecs are not usually used for such small distances.
As,
1 Parsec = 3.26 Light-Years.
Parsecs should only be used for distances above 3.26 Light-years.
Sun is 8.3 Light-minutes away from the Earth.
8.3 light-minutes = 1.579 x
As,
3.26 Light-years = 1 Parsec
1 Light-Year = 0.306 Parsecs
1.579 x
so,
Distance from the Sun to the Earth in Parsecs = 4.84 x
