Kari is on a trip to Italy. She has made a list of cities she would like to tour while she is there, as well as how much she expects it will cost her (between transportation, admission, souvenirs, and so on) to see each one. The prices are listed in either US dollars ($) or euros (€). Kari has a budget of $585 set aside for sightseeing. She would also like to tour Genoa as well, which would cost her €60.85. If the US dollars​ to euros at the time of Kari's visit is 1:0.6859, how will this affect her budget?

A) Kari can see Genoa and have $60.33 left in her budget.
B) Kari can see Genoa and have $41.38 left in her budget.
C) Kari has almost exactly enough left in her budget to see Genoa.
D) Kari cannot afford to see Genoa because it would put her $84.48 over budget.

Answer:

Option C. is the answer.

Explanation:

Kari has a budget for sightseeing = $585

She would like to visit Genoa also which will cost her €60.85

Conversion factor from dollar to euro has been given as 1 : 0.6859

Therefore, we will convert €60.85 to dollars first.


(1)/(0.6859)=(x)/(60.85)

x =
(60.85)/(0.6859)=88.72

Expenditure to visit Genoa = $88.72

Money left with her after Genoa tour = 585 - 88.72

= $496.28

She will have enough money left with her after Genoa tour.

Option C will be the answer.
