That should be "sí, cómo no" (tildes).
Idiomatic English would say, "yes, of course"

Pesta's is a much better response, but I like to try.... - happyquilter, Feb 11, 2011
That's ok, Happy, you definitely should practice and try to offer suggestions. I suggest that if you're not sure, you write: "I think the answer is..." or "I appears to mean..." :-) - Gekkosan, Feb 11, 2011

Shouldn't this idiomatic expression, even though it means "Yes, of course," be written as an interrogative for the "cómo no" part? -- Sí, ¿cómo no?

Yes, it should. cf. "Sure, why not? - samdie, Nov 21, 2011
