Answer:

The distance in kilometers is 4012 ×
10^(-6) km.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the conversion of 1 millimeters is equal to
10^(-3) meter. And then the conversion of 1 meter is equal to
10^(-3) km. Then the conversion of 1 millimeter to km will be

1 mm =
10^(-3) m

1 m =
10^(-3) km

So, 1 mm =
10^(-3)×
10^(-3) km =
10^(-6) km.

As here the the distance is 4012 mm, then the distance in km will be

4012 mm = 4012 ×
10^(-6) km.

So the distance is 4012 ×
10^(-6) km.
