Step-by-step explanation:

It seems like you're referring to a specific activity or question from the "Gizmo Student Exploration: Unit Conversions" sheet. I don't have access to specific external documents or activities like this. However, I can provide you with general guidance on unit conversions.

A. The units given to the right of the equals sign are the units of the result or output that you're trying to calculate.

B. The units didn't cancel in this case because unit cancellation only occurs when you have conversion factors that are equal to 1. If the conversion factors are not set up correctly, the units won't cancel out.

C. To make the units cancel, you need to set up conversion factors that relate the given units to the desired units. These conversion factors should be ratios that are equal to 1 and have the units you want to cancel in the denominator and the units you want to end up with in the numerator.

If you could provide more specific information or context about the units and values involved in the question, I'd be happy to help you further!
