Question

Ellie buys a mobile phone in Spain for €352.50. Her brother Jack buys an identical phone in Japan for ¥39856 (Japanese Yen). Using the exchange rates below £1 = €1.41, £1 = ¥188. How much cheaper was Japan than Spain?

Answer 1

Answer:

£38

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much cheaper the Japan phone was compared to the Spain phone, we need to convert the prices.

Let's convert Ellie's first to pounds.

€352.50

352.50/1.41 = £250

Now let's convert Jack's price to pounds.

¥39856

39856/188 = £212

So Ellie's phone cost £250 and Jack's cost £212.

£250 - £212 = £38

So Jack's Japan phone was cheaper by £38.
