Question

Ming was planning a trip to Western Samoa. Before going,she did spme research and learned that the exchange rate is 6 Tala for $2. How many Tala would she get if she exchanged $6

Answer 1

She would get 18 Tala if she exchanged $6. Since its every $2 for 6 Tala, just simply divide $6 divided by 2 and get 3, and then 3 x 6 which would get you 18 Tala.
Hope this helped :)

Answer 2

6 for 2 dollars
Now, we need to set up a proportion.

6/2 = x/6

Cross multiply.

6*6 = 36
2*x = 2x

2x= 36

2x/2 = 36/2
x= 36/2
x= 18

Final answer: He would get 18 Tala

18 is the answer! :)
