We know that 1 km is equal to 1 x 10^3 meters. So, we multiply the given distance by 1 x 10^3 to get the distance in meters:1.50\u00d7108&nbsp;km\u00d7103=1.50\u00d71011&nbsp;meters1.50 \\times 10^8 \\text{ km} \\times 10^3 = 1.50 \\times 10^{11} \\text{ meters}1.50\u00d7108&nbsp;km\u00d7103=1.50\u00d71011&nbsp;meters<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Convert meters to Terameters<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, we convert meters to Terameters. Since 1 Tm = 1 x 10^12 meters, we divide the distance in meters by 1 x 10^12:1.50\u00d71011&nbsp;meters1\u00d71012&nbsp;meters\/Tm=1.50\u00d710\u22121&nbsp;Tm\\frac{1.50 \\times 10^{11} \\text{ meters}}{1 \\times 10^{12} \\text{ meters\/Tm}} = 1.50 \\times 10^{-1} \\text{ Tm}1\u00d71012&nbsp;meters\/Tm1.50\u00d71011&nbsp;meters\u200b=1.50\u00d710\u22121&nbsp;Tm<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, the distance from Earth to the Sun is:1.50\u00d710\u22121&nbsp;Tm=0.15&nbsp;Tm1.50 \\times 10^{-1} \\text{ Tm} = 0.15 \\text{ Tm}1.50\u00d710\u22121&nbsp;Tm=0.15&nbsp;Tm<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The correct answer is <strong>none of the options listed<\/strong>, as the result is 0.15 Tm. However, if the options were meant to indicate 0.15, it would likely be <strong>1.50 x 10^-1 Tm<\/strong>, but it&#8217;s not included in the choices given.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/learnexams.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/learnexams-banner8-176.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-248209\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Correct Answer and Explanation is: To convert the distance from Earth to the Sun (1.50 x 10^8 km) into Terameters (Tm), we can use the given conversions: 1 Tm = 1 x 10^12 meters1 km = 1 x 10^3 meters Step 1: Convert kilometers to meters First, convert the distance from kilometers to meters.
