I'm not sure how to set the default value of a variable to the value of another variable. Help!

How do I set the default value of a variable to the value of another variable?

style.scss 
$base-font-size: 16px;
$context: 16px;

@function px-to-rem($target, $context) {
 @return ($context = $base-font-size !default);
}

Hi Ashley! Functions can take a bit to understand.

@function px-to-rem($target, $context: $base-font-size) {

}

This should start you in the right direction!
