  2. Thanks Lauren for sharing this! Your picture was a good refresher from class, and this repetition will ensure my memorization of it. You also included a good point concerning making sure you know your conversion factors, because this is often what I struggle with the most when it comes to these problems. Your videos were a great addition also, for anyone needing any further explanation or practice. Overall you're doing great on your blog, good job!
