The problem is saying that 17/20 times the number of dollars equals the number of euros converted. Which in this case to solve your problem, 17/20 times one equals 17/20.

Answer:

0.85 euros have the same price as 1 dollar based on this rate conversion.

Explanation:

This is a case of a money conversion, we have the rate of conversion and we have to found how many Euros have the same value as 1 dollar, this is:


Euro=(17)/(20) *Dollar

If we have 1 dollar we can find the amount of Euros:


Euro=(17)/(20) * 1 dollar


Euro=0.85

0.85 euros have the same price as 1 dollar based on this rate conversion.
