To convert meters to kilometers, you need to divide the given value by 1000 since there are 1000 meters in a kilometer.
Let's apply this conversion to 3.875×10^9 meters:
3.875×10^9 meters ÷ 1000 = 3.875×10^9 ÷ 1000 = 3.875×10^6 kilometers
So, 3.875×10^9 meters is equal to 3.875×10^6 kilometers.
However, you mentioned expressing the answer to the exact decimal place. When given a number in scientific notation, you can directly express it in decimal notation by moving the decimal point to the left or right based on the exponent.
In this case, moving the decimal point 6 places to the left would give us the answer in decimal notation:
3.875×10^6 kilometers = 3,875,000 kilometers
So, the exact decimal representation of 3.875×10^9 meters is 3,875,000 kilometers.
