See a solution process below:

#### Explanation:

The conversion factor for micro meters to meters is:

$1 \mu \text{m" = 0.000001"m}$

To find how many meters in $25 , 000 \mu \text{m}$ we multiply each side of the conversion equation by $\textcolor{red}{25 , 000}$:

$\textcolor{red}{25 , 000} \times 1 \mu \text{m" = color(red)(25,000) xx 0.000001"m}$

$25 , 000 \mu \text{m" = 0.025"m}$
