Conversion Unit Woes

[afuna]

Or why units matter:



(11,490 pesos is about 250 USD; 11490 USD is about 540,000 pesos -- enough to buy a car!)

XD At least it's immediately obvious that the number is ridiculous! It's about 3.5 ringgit to 1 USD, and when I see the converted numbers I keep thinking, "man, that's way too expensive," before realising that I didn't have to multiply everything by 3.5.

(Or, alternatively, I think something is cheap, and realising with a sad sigh later that I forgot to multiply it by 3.5.)
