You are on an alien planet where the names for substances and the units of measures are very unfamiliar.

Nonetheless, you obtain 19 quibs of substance called skvarnick.

You can trade this skvarnick for gold coins, but the vendors all measure skvarnick in units of sleps; not quibs.

4 sleps is equal to 3 quibs.

if you have 19 quibs of skvarnick, how many sleps do you have?

Round your answer to the nearest tenth (one decimal place). Type only the number; not the number and unit.

    Answer: 25.3

    Explanation:

    The question aks to convert 19 quibs, which is the amount of skvarnick that you obtained, to sleps.

    Since, you are given the equivalence between sleps and quibs, you can build your own conversion factor, which is how the sciientific calculations are made:

    equivalence: 4 sleps = 3 quibs divide both sides by by 3 quibs: (4 sleps / 3 quibs) = (3 quibs / 3 quibs) simplify: 4 sleps / 3 quibs = 1 ← conversion factor

    Now, you can multiply 19 quibs by the conversion factor:

    19 quibs * 4 sleps / 3 quibs = 76 / 3 sleps ≈ 25.3 sleps. ← answer

    The quibs units cancel out since they are in the numerator and denominator, leaving only sleps.
