Answer:
10^9 meters.
Explanation:
A small trick I use is counting how many zeroes trail behind the one.
If we count the number of zeroes behind the one, there are 9.
Therefore 1,000,000,000 = 10^9 meters.
This can be proved by taking a number, say 1. If you multiply that by 10, you add a zero to the end of it.
