Convert 3.875×10 power of 9 m to kilometers express the answer to the exact decimal place note 1 km is equal to 1000 meters

Answer 1

To convert \(3.875 \times 10^9\) meters to kilometers, you can use the conversion factor that \(1 \text{ km} = 1000 \text{ m}\).

1. Start with the given measurement in meters: \[ 3.875 \times 10^9 \text{ m} \]

2. Divide by the number of meters in a kilometer: \[ \frac{3.875 \times 10^9 \text{ m}}{1000 \text{ m/km}} = 3.875 \times 10^9 \div 1000 \]

3. Simplify the calculation: \[ 3.875 \times 10^9 \div 1000 = 3.875 \times 10^6 \text{ km} \]

Thus, the final answer is: \[ 3.875 \times 10^6 \text{ km} \]
