How can I convert my Appleworks 6 word processor and spreadsheets files to Pages and Numbers for OS 10.9?

My disc drive on my 6 year old MacBook died. I bought an iMac with OS10.9, but it will not allow me to open Appleworks files from my backup drive. Does anyone know of a method to transfer or open Appleworks 6 files in Pages or Numbers for OS 10.9? I need those files.


Thanks

Many of us use LibreOffice, and not OpenOffice, for the former commitment to older Apple document formats, and more aggressive product development cycles. Each application has its own development team contributors, product roadmap, and is managed/funded by separate organizations. They have long since ceased to be the same product.
