Question

Alright listen up I need this to be checked, if I'm right then just say ur right but if I'm wrong then can I pretty pretty please with a cherry on top explain the real answer?❤️ Thanks so much please no fibbing just for points, if u want points then tell me in the comment section and I'll make a separate thing for u to take points on and they'll be free, just please don't answer this if you don't know the answer please. Okay love ya thanks.

So here's the prompt:
How is using a conversion factor different from using proportions to convert measurement units? Explain which is easier and why.

Here's my answer:
Well a conversion is a simple ratio that involves two mesurements, and you can't break it down in smaller steps in order to solve it. Proportions are two mesurements that you solve in order to see if it's proportional, but you can break the problems up in order to make it easier to solve. For me proportions are easier to do.

And by the way please don't use this as ur own answer otherwise it'll get me in trouble okay❤️

Answer 1

I think you're correct your answer sounds pretty good :)

Explanation:

hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Conversion factors are easier to use because they are constant.

For example, if you needed to convert, say, 13 kilometers to feet, a conversion factor would help. You would use proportions to convert given a similar conversion.

Essentially, you're answer is correct, because one way to convert units may be different than somebody else's. For you, might be using proportions, which is fine.
