Answer 1

Answer: SK is 3.1116/SF

Step-by-step explanation:

1 Franc = 1 krona

$0.6164 = $0.1981.

Then if,

0.6164 = 0.1981

What is 1 Krona in terms of a Franc

0.6164 : 0.1981

x : 1

0.1981x = 0.6164

x = 0.6164 / 0.1981

x = 3.11155981827

x = 3.1116

This means that 1 krona is 3.1116 Franc or,

SK is 3.1116/SF
