Given:

Ratios are given in question

Required:


\frac{1.03\text{ dollers}}{1\text{ lb}}=X*Y=Z(euro)/(kg)

we have to fnd the values of X , Y and Z

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we just adjust the units

if we take


X=\frac{2.2\text{ lb}}{1\text{ kg}}

and


Y=\frac{1\text{ euro}}{1.09\text{ dollars}}

now put the value of X and Y we get Z


\frac{1.03\text{ doolars}}{1\text{ lb}}*\frac{2.2\text{ lb}}{1\text{ kg}}*\frac{1\text{ euro}}{1.09\text{ dollars}}=2.078(euro)/(kg)

We get z is 2.078

Final answer:

First blank is


\frac{2.2\text{lb}}{1\text{kg}}

second blank is


\frac{1\text{euro}}{1.09\text{dollars}}

and last blank is 2.078
