Kinza goes on holiday to South Africa.
Kinza wants to change £950 into South African rand.
She wants to get as many 200 rand notes as possible.
The exchange rate is £1 = 18.53 rand.
Work out the greatest number of 200 rand notes that Kinza can get for £950

The answer is 88 200 rand bank notes

950*18.53=17603.5

17603.5/200=88 r3.5 (the reason there is no decimal is because it doesn’t matter because you can’t have less than a whole 200 rand note)
