Step Three: Apply Unit Factors to
Convert the Given Unit to Answer Unit!
Use Your Knowledge of English:
1. From the Problem write down all the Equivalent Relationships given or Unit Factors. For example:
- 1 carat = 0.200 g
- 186,000 mi = 1 sec
- 1 minute = 60 sec
- 20 cig = 1 pack
2. Beware of our Tricks!
- We disguise numbers by making them words.
- We leave out obvious equivalent relationships, or relationships we think you should know.
- We stick extra information in the form of numbers and equivalent relationship you will not need to solve the problem
