Answer:

1 U.S. dollar equals 6.4185 Chinese yuans. The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

- The first step is to get a fraction between the currencies. The fraction is obtained by dividing the 1 yuan by 0.1558 U.S. dollars.


fraction=(1\, \, yuan)/(0.1558\, \, U.S.\, \, dollars.)

- The second step is to multiply the previous fraction by 1 U.S. dollar.


(1\, \, yuan)/(0.1558\, \, U.S.\, \, dollars)* 1\, \, U.S.\, \, dollars

As you can see, the U.S. dollar units can be cancelled and yuan remains.


(1\, \, yuan)/(0.1558)* 1

- The last step is to perform the division.


1\, \, U.S.\, \, dollars=6.4185\, \, yuans

Thus, 1 U.S. dollar equals 6.4185 Chinese yuans. The correct answer is D.
