Question

Priya's family exchanged 250 dollars for 4,250 pesos. Priya bought a sweater for 510 pesos. How many dollars did the sweater cost? Pesos dollars 4,250 250 25 1 3 510

Answer 1

$30

Explanation:

since they exchanged them we can assume they are worth the same

250=4250

First find how many pesos is worth 1 dollar

4250/250= 17

Then divide the amount the sweater costs by how much 1 dollar would be

510/17= 30

The sweater would cost 30 dollars.
