Homework Statement


use the given conversion factors to complete the calculations that follow.

2.00red=5.00 blue 2.00yellow=6.25pink 5.00blue=8.00green

3.00green=8.00black 5.12yellow=1.00red 2.00black=3.00pink

im just going to put the last 2 questions up I am pretty sure I have this right but I can't trust myself.

1)25.1 pink equals how many red?

2)486 black is the same as how many red?


The Attempt at a Solution



1) 25.1 pink(2.00yellow/6.25pink)=8.032yellow(1.00red/5.12yellow)=1.57 red


2) 486black(3.00pink/2.00black)=729pink(2.00yellow/6.25pink)=233.28yellow(1.00red/5.12yellow)=45.6red
