To convert 9860 kilometers into meters we have to multiply 9860 by the conversion factor in order to get the length amount from kilometers to meters. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 km → 1000 m

9860 km → L_(m)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the length L in meters:

L_(m) = 9860 km × 1000 m

L_(m) = 9860000 m

The final result is:

9860 km → 9860000 m

We conclude that 9860 kilometers is equivalent to 9860000 meters:
