Answer:

$0.93

Step-by-step explanation:

The quantity theory of money was developed by Irving Fisher.

The theory aims to assess how price changes in relation to changes in money supply

Money supply x velocity = price x quantity produced

$120 billion x 3.5 = price x 450

price = 420 / 450 = $0.93
