Question

mike was planning a trip to country jordan. before going, he did some research and learned that the exchange rate is 3 dinars for every $4. how many dinars would he get if he exchanged $300?solve the proportion

Answer 1

From the given information we know that he can get 3 dinars for every $4, then we can express the following proportion:

3dinars /4 dollars

We express it with the dinars in the numerator since we are asked to find how many dinars would he get if he exchanged $300, we can calculate the corresponding dinars by multiplying the proportion by 300, like this:

300*3/4 = 225

Then Mike would get 225 dinars if he exchanges $300
