Question

genets and okapis are made-up units of distance. Assume 1 genet equals 2700 okapis.

(D) Convert 0.005 cubic genets into cubic okapis

(E) Convert 2 okapis per second into genets per hour

Answer 1

g = 2400(ok)

g^3 = 2400^3(ok) = 1.3824 x 10^10 = 13,824,000,000 ok^3= about 13.8 billion oks

2 oks per second = ? gs per hour

each ok = g/24000

2 oks per second = 2g/2400 = g/1200 per second

g/1200 per second = 60(60)g/1200 per hour = 3600/1200 g per hour = 3 g per hour

2 ok per sec = 3 g per hour

"genet" sounds suspiciously like Jean Genet? common criminal turned writer. If he'd been here today, he'd have made off with major money in bitcoins or a Bernie Madoff accomplice. Or maybe genet is that meat eating African animal, 27 or so species. Not much difference, human or subhuman. either feeds on its own kind and then translated it into being "ok"
