Only trick is making it too simple :wink:
(Almost similar case with asking student to convert -40oF into celsius. Just happens to work out that it's also -40, so poor student wastes the rest of the test trying to find his nonexistant error...)
Oh, yeah. Keep track of significant figures, also. Other than that, you're right on!
