Question

You are on an alien planet where the names for substances and the units of measures are very unfamiliar. Nonetheless, you obtain 8 quibs of a substance called skvarnick. You can trade this skvarnick for gold coins, but the vendors all measure skvarnick in units of sleps; not quibs. 13 sleps is equal to 15 quibs. If you have 8 quibs of skvarnick, how many sleps do you have? Round your answer to the nearest tenth (one decimal place). Your Answer:

Answer 1

8 quibs of skvarnick is equal to 6.9 sleps of skvarnick .

8 quibs of skvarnick is equal to 6.9 sleps of skvarnick .
