Answer:

$405

Explanation:

This is a proportion problem!

Build fractions that have euros on top and dollars on the bottom (or the other way around, you decide, but make it the same in both fractions).

Let's do euros over dollars.

Setup:


(200)/(270)=(300)/(d)

"Cross multiply."


200d=300* 270\\\\200d=81000\\\\d=(81000)/(200)=405

We must fine the conversion for this, so we have to divide $270 by 200€ to get 1.35 Dollars for every Euro..
Now we multiply 300 by 1.35 to get 405 dollars
