Both meters and gigameters are units of measuring length; the meter is smaller than the gigameter, but the ratio of meters to gigameters is fixed in the metric system, so it is very easy to convert meters into gigameters. In order to convert gigameters to meters, one must use an equivalency equation. Since 1 meter (m) of length is equivalent to 0.0000000010 gigameters (Gm) in length, the equation is 1Gm= 1,000,000m.
You divide by 1 billion.
The base unit of length is the meter (m). A kilometre (km) is 1000 meters. So 149,600,000km can also be expressed as 149,600,000,000m. 149,600,000km would be more accurately written in gigameters (Gm). This would be written as 149.6Gm.
0.001 gigameters how did you work the problem to get the answer?
convert 0.056915 meters to micrometers
To convert from feet to meters multiply by 0.3048 21 feet = 21 x 0.3048 meters ~ 6.4 meters
5.69 Meters?
One billionth.The prefix "giga" means billion (a thousand million). That's the conversion factor. To convert from meters to gigameters, you would divide by a billion. Please note that this unit is not usually used in practice.
3,900,000,000 meters
The Sun's diameter is 1.39 Gigameters (A million miles is 1.6 Gigameters).
1 meter=1.0x10^-9 gigameters
micrometres < metres < gigametres
The base unit of length is the meter (m). A kilometre (km) is 1000 meters. So 149,600,000km can also be expressed as 149,600,000,000m. 149,600,000km would be more accurately written in gigameters (Gm). This would be written as 149.6Gm.
1 meter = 1.0 × 10-9 gigameters
0.001 gigameters how did you work the problem to get the answer?
One gigameter (Gm) is equal to one billion meters. The distance from the Earth to the sun is 149,600,000,000 meters, or 149.6 Gm.
1 gigametre = 109 metres so 3 gigametres = 3*109 metres.
There is no equivalence between metres and gigametre.An equation for conversion is 1,000,000,000 metres = 1 gigametre.
