Hi there!

To solve this problem you will need to use the cross product method:

1 U.S. dollar → 1.09 euros

x U.S. dollar → 157 euros


To find x, divide 157 by 1.09 :

157 ÷ 1.09 = x

144.036697 = x

144.04 ≅x (You need to round to the hundredths because our answer is in money)


Your answer : If you were to exchange 157 euros you would recieve 144.04 U.S. dollar.


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

D. 171.13

how to do this is easy:

multiply 157 by 1.09,  157.00x1.09=171.13
