Question

The floating cities appear to float pretty high off the surface to you and you'd like to know just

how far off the surface they are. Zolonians measure distance in bedars instead of kilometers. To convert bedars to
kilometers the formula is 16km + 12 = bedars. If Zolon's cities float 204 bedars in the air, how many kilometers off the
surface of Zolon is that?

Answer 1

12 km

Explanation:

16km + 12 = 204

Subtract 12 from both sides:

⇒ 16km = 192

Divide both sides by 16:

⇒ km = 12
