If 0.20 bushel is 1 dozen apples and a dozen apples has a mass of 2.0 kg, what is the mass of 0.50 bushel of apples?
When solving this problem forget EVERYTHING you've ever learned about ratios and solve the problem like this. 0.50 bushel x (1 dozen apples / 0.20 bushels) x (2.0 kg / 1 dozen apples) = 5 kg. This is called "dimensional analysis" or "unit factor method" or "factor label method" and it is the method taught by every decent chemistry instructor on the planet. ChaCha!
