So let’s start off with some common ground. I’m sure most people will agree the moon revolves around earth. So with that in mind, how do you think it’s possible if the moon revolves around earth. That the sun is making the same path in the sky that the moon does? It’s the story of the tortoise and the hare. The moon is the tortoise it’s slower than the sun but yet it completes the ecliptic in one month. Winning the race. The sun takes a whole year to make the same path but flys across the sky faster than the moon. Our senses tell us we are stationary but we are told we are spinning and flying around the sun and we have to believe it on blind faith.

However when you enter the values for gravity of the earth and sun everything works fine but once you add the moon nothing works. This is the called the body problem. So you see your explanation doesn’t match reality there is no other example where you can demonstrate what we observe successfully
Howso? What masses and distances are you using? Are you including the gravitation of the outer gas giants in your equations?
You may find that your calculations ebb and flow on either side of the expected depending on whether Jupiter is nearer Earth or the Sun.
