To convert meters to kilometers, you divide the number of meters by 1,000, since 1 kilometer is equal to 1,000 meters.
Given: \( 3.875 \times 10^9 \) meters
To convert to kilometers: \[ \text{kilometers} = \frac{3.875 \times 10^9 \text{ meters}}{1000} \] \[ \text{kilometers} = 3.875 \times 10^6 \text{ kilometers} \]
So, \( 3.875 \times 10^9 \) meters is equal to \( 3.875 \times 10^6 \) kilometers.
