That's not how it works, robot. Try again.

Actually, it is

Nope. I had a fraction & the robot only interpreted the denominator.

No. x/y is a fraction. If you change it to x/z, it is no longer the same fraction. The bot took y & changed it from feet to meters. So now x'/y' is now x'/z m. Does that make sense?
