Answer:

Most expensive in Tokyo, Least expensive in Cancun

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Exchange rates 1 $= 120 Yen

1$ =0.8 Euro

1$ = 10 pesos

Now, a bottle of beer costs in New York = 6$

in Tokyo = 1200 Yen i.e
(1200)/(120) = 10$

in Munich = 7.2 Euro i.e
(7.2)/(0.8) = $9

in Cancun = 50 pesos =
(50)/(10) = $5

Thus, it can be seen, the beer is least expensive in Cancun, then in New York, followed by Munich and lastly most expensive in Tokyo.
