How much killometers in 1 quadrillion micrometers?

Answer 1

To convert 1 quadrillion micrometers to kilometers, first note that 1 micrometer is (10^{-6}) meters and 1 kilometer is (10^3) meters. Therefore, 1 quadrillion micrometers is (1 \times 10^{15} , \text{micrometers} \times 10^{-6} , \text{meters/micrometer} = 1 \times 10^9 , \text{meters}). Since there are (1,000) meters in a kilometer, this equals (1 \times 10^9 , \text{meters} \div 1,000 = 1 \times 10^6 , \text{kilometers}). Thus, 1 quadrillion micrometers is 1 million kilometers.
