Question

if one € (euro) = 1.3612 US dollars, how many € can you get for $400 USD? (round two decimal places as needed)

Answer 1

We have

One euro = 1.3612 USD

x euros = 400 USD

Then:

`1.3612* x=400*1`

And solve for x

`\begin{gathered} 1.3612x=400 \\ (1.3612x)/(1.3612)=(400)/(1.3612) \\ x=293.86 \end{gathered}`

Answer: 293.86 euros
