gigameter [Gm]
Definition: A gigameter is a unit of length equal to 1 billion meters.
Historyandorigin: It is part of the metric system, introduced in the late 20th century.
CurrentUse: It is used in theoretical physics and cosmology to describe very large distances.
funfact: The prefix 'giga-' comes from the Greek word 'gigas,' meaning 'giant,' as it represents (10^{9}).
astronomical unit [AU, UA]
Definition: An astronomical unit is a unit of length approximately equal to the distance from the Earth to the Sun.

How to Convert gigameter to astronomical unit
1 gigameter [Gm] = 0.0066845871 astronomical unit [AU, UA]
1 astronomical unit [AU, UA] = 149.59787069 gigameter [Gm]
we use cross multiplication method
gigameter [Gm] → astronomical unit [AU, UA]
1 → 0.0066845871
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.0066845871=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0100268807
