Tough Problem...

If this number 4,199,497,929,708 = 2,500,000,000
How much would this number equal: 1,656,606,678,386 = ?????
Also how much would this number be: 5,459,374,308,620 = ??? my guess is 3,077,000,000


Please show how this problem is solved. We are trying to figure it out! Thank you.

This is the reason why below explain more details.

What does "4,199,497,929,708 = 2,500,000,000" mean????

Obviously those two numbers are not equal so thus must be saying that some function of 4,199,497,929,708 is equal to 2,500,000,000 but there are infinitely many such functions.

 

[JeffM]

Consider an equation that states an equivalence between different units of measure, for example

[MATH]\text {If } x = \text {linear distance in feet and}\\ y = \text {linear distance in inches, then, by definition, it is always true that} \\ \dfrac{x}{y} = 12 \text { and } \dfrac{y}{x} = \dfrac{1}{12}.[/MATH]So when you are given a single numeric instance of such an equivalence, you can compute those two ratios and then use them in any other instance to get the correct numeric result.

So how would you apply this to your problem?

Are you given (or can you assume):

0 EXP = 0 GEONS...........................................................?..................(IN GAME MONEY)
