    Answer : Option A

    Explanation :

    The moon orbits Earth at a mean distance of just over 384,000km. The moon's orbit around Earth is also slightly eccentric – at perigee (its closest distance to Earth), it's a little over 362,500km from Earth, while at apogee (furthest from Earth), it is almost 405,500km away.
