Explanation:

The conversion factor for meters to kilometers is:

#1" meter" = 0.001" kilometers"#

To find the orbit of the satellites in meters we multiply each side of the equation by #color(red)(1,400,000)# giving:

#color(red)(1,400,000) xx 1" meter" = color(red)(1,400,000) xx 0.001" kilometers"#

#1,400,000" meter" = 1,400" kilometers"#
