Answer:
Local shop= $5665,89
India=$1831,5
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, we have to calculate whether it is cheaper to buy 125 gr of 22 karat gold from the local shop or India.
We have the following information:
EEUU: $1285 an ounce of gold
India= 999 rupee/gr.
1gr=0,035274 ounce
15 rupees=$0,22
First, we calculate how much does it cost in EEUU:
125gr*0,35274=4,40925 ounces
$1285*4,40925 ounces= $5665,89
Now, we calculate how much does it cost in India:
999rupees*125gr=124875 rupees
124875 rupees=? = (124875*0,22)/15=$1831,5
