Convert 3.875 times 10 to the ninth power meter to kilometers. Express the answer to the exact decimal place.

Answer 1

To convert from meters to kilometers, we divide by 1000 since there are 1000 meters in 1 kilometer.

Therefore, we have:

3.875 * 10^9 meters = (3.875 * 10^9) / 1000 kilometers

Simplifying the expression:

(3.875 * 10^9) / 1000 = 3.875 * 10^6 kilometers

So, 3.875 times 10 to the ninth power meters is equal to 3.875 times 10 to the sixth power kilometers.
