Earth's semi-major axis in its orbit around the sun, a = 149.6 x106 km

Earth's mass is 6 x 1024 kg

Earth's Gravitational Parameter, μEarth = 3.986 x 105 km3s-2

Sun's Gravitational Parameter, μSun = 1.327×1011 km3 s-2

Sun's mass is 2 x 1030 kg The units on your answer should be km2s-2.

Please provide just the value and not the units in youranswer.
