Question

Mr.Travelswell is about to visit Germany and Sweden. He has £5000 to spend. He wants to exchange 60% of this into Euros in Germany, and the rest into Krona in Sweden. When he changes his £5000, 1 Euro = £0.75 and £1=12.63 Krona. Calculate how many Euros and how many Krona he will receive.

Answer 1

4000 Euros and 25260 kronas.

detailed answer:

If £5000 is 100percent of his money, then 60percent is £X

x=(60×5000)/100= 3000(£)

rest of it is £2000

lets calculate Euros first:

3000/0.75=4000 (Euro €)

now kronas:

2000×12.63=25260 krona.
