"While touring Europe, Alfred finds that $1=7drachmas and 5 drachmas=3 quills. What's the ratio of dollars to quills?"
Here is how i set up the problem:
($1/7D)(5D/3Q)=$5/21Q
Therefore the ratio would be $5:21Q.
The correct answer is 21/5. Could someone explain where I went wrong? I set up the problem similar to how I would set up a stoichiometry problem for GC.
