Question

Elizabeth is returning to the United States from Canada. She changes the remaining 300 Canadian dollars she has to $250 US dollars. What was $1 US dollar worth in Canadian dollars?

Answer 1

Answer:

1.20 Canadian Dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Use cross multiplication to solve for this.

$\frac{300}{250} =\frac{x}{1}$

Keep Canadian dollars on top and the USD on the bottom.

So you will have:

300(1)/250 = 1.20
