How many gigameters are in $1,000,000,000,000 micrometers?

Why do you have a $ dollar sign in a question that involves length?

10^12 micrometers = 10^6 meters
1 gigameter = 10^9 meters

Take it from there

Oops about the dollar sign - thanks!

To convert from micrometers to gigameters, we need to understand the conversion factors involved.

1 gigameter (Gm) is equal to 1,000,000,000 meters.
1 meter is equal to 1,000,000 micrometers.

With this information, we can calculate the conversion:

1 Gm = 1,000,000,000 meters
1 meter = 1,000,000 micrometers

To convert from micrometers to gigameters, we can follow these steps:

Step 1: Convert micrometers to meters:
1,000,000,000,000 micrometers ÷ 1,000,000 = 1,000,000 meters

Step 2: Convert meters to gigameters:
1,000,000 meters ÷ 1,000,000,000 = 0.001 gigameters

Therefore, there are 0.001 gigameters in 1,000,000,000,000 micrometers.
