Answer 1

To convert \(3.875 \times 10^0\) meters to kilometers, we first recognize that \(10^0 = 1\), so the value is simply \(3.875\) meters.

Next, we convert meters to kilometers using the conversion factor:

\[ 1 \text{ kilometer} = 1,000 \text{ meters} \]

To make the conversion, we divide the number of meters by 1,000:

\[ \text{Kilometers} = \frac{3.875 \text{ meters}}{1,000} = 0.003875 \text{ kilometers} \]

Thus, \(3.875 \times 10^0\) meters is equal to \(0.003875\) kilometers.
