Final answer:
After converting the costs of the watches from Singapore dollars and Hong Kong dollars to pounds, the difference in price that Kane and Coco paid is £1.98. This answer does not match the provided options, indicating a possible error in the question's details or options.
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the difference between the amounts paid for the watches in pounds, we first need to convert the costs from Singapore dollars and Hong Kong dollars into pounds using the given exchange rates.
Kane's watch cost 54 Singapore dollars. Using the exchange rate of 1 Pound = 1.82 Singapore dollars, we calculate the cost in pounds as follows:
54 Singapore dollars × (1 Pound / 1.82 Singapore dollars) = 29.67 Pounds (rounded to two decimal places).
Coco's watch cost 294 Hong Kong dollars. Using the exchange rate of 1 Pound = 10.62 Hong Kong dollars, we calculate the cost in pounds as follows:
294 Hong Kong dollars × (1 Pound / 10.62 Hong Kong dollars) = 27.69 Pounds (rounded to two decimal places).
Finally, we find the difference between the two amounts:
29.67 Pounds - 27.69 Pounds = 1.98 Pounds.
Therefore, the difference between the amounts that Kane and Coco paid for their watches, expressed in pounds, is £1.98. However, this answer does not match any of the provided options (A, B, C, D), so there might be a mistake in the provided exchange rates, the cost of the watches, or the question's options.
