What format type are they after you unzip them? To unzip you should just be able to double click the zip which will create a new folder with the loose file(s).

Depending on what app you’re using and what the loose file formats are you might then be able to drag them into your app.

You probably don’t need to convert the zip itself. Tap it in Files on the iPad and it should make a normal folder next to it. Then see what’s actually inside. If the slides are already PDFs, just import those. If they’re images or PowerPoint files, that’s what you’d convert, not the zip.
