Calculating Kinetic Energy! PLEASE HELP!!!!?

This is my homework question.

*You dont have to get me the answer, with just explaining it, it will help me LOADS! thanks*

The potential energy of a swing is 200 J (J= Joules) at its highest point and 50 J at its lowest point. If the mechanical energy is conserved, what is the kinetic energy of the swing at its lowest point?

Mechanical energy is conserved: the total energy of the system remains constant, regardless of state changes. Any “missing” potential energy must have turned into kinetic energy.

Does that do it?
