Question

Liz goes on holiday to South Africa

Liz wants to change £850 into south african rand
she wants to get as many 200 rand notes as possible

The exchange rate is £1=18.53 rand

Work out the greatest number of 200 rand notes that liz can get for £850

Answer 1

82 notes

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Given that

£1= 18.53 rand

and since Linz has £850 so he would get the equivalent of

= $890 × 18.53

= 16,491.7 rands

Now he wants the 200 rand notes so we considered it as the highest note

So, the greatest no of 200 notes would be

= 16,491.7 ÷ 200

= 82.45

= 82 notes
