No, Ralph.  As I stated, that was a simplistic *example* of solving that
type of equation, which you claimed was "nonsense".  Don't try to evade
the very issue you brought up.

Why not post the *exact* equation you have an issue with, not a generic
"Fn"?  Then someone can not only show you how to solve the equation, but
show that the units come out correctly.
