Ok, maybe it's unfair to call the question stupid, but no matter how far out you are the Earth still applies a force of gravitational attraction so there is no real answer.

Earths gravity is holding the moon in orbit so at least farther than that.

Also if the earth had no mass (no gravity) it would fly away from the sun. So at least that far too.

Quoted By:

Everything in the universe exerts gravitational acceleration on everything else. It's just that the force from the Big Bang was so intense that everything including space itself is expanding outward to the point where only local masses have noticeable effects

As far as to where the Earth's gravity yields its dominant influence to the next body. If Earth were the only object in the universe, it would be very far indeed. GMm/r2 - go figure out how little is little enough for you.

every object in the universe has gravitational pull on every other, just give it time
