Question

The number of euros received varies directly with the of dollar number exchanged. If $5.00 is exchanged for 3.65 euros, how many euros would be received for $8.00?

Answer 1

`$5.84`

Explanation:

The direct relationship can be written as `e=ad` where `e` is the number of euros and `d` is the number of dollars.

`3.65 = a*5`

`:.a=3.65/5 = 0.73`

then, for `$8`, you would get

`e = 0.73*8 = $5.84`
