Respuesta :

44.70 US dollars is the correct answer

Answer:

Option A. 44.70 US dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Phelan exchanged 250 US dollars for euros and spent 150 euros on his trip.

1 European Euro = 1.3687 US dollars

First we convert dollars to European euros.

1.3687 dollars = 1 European Euro

1 dollar = [tex]\frac{1}{1.3687}[/tex] = 0.730620 ≈ 0.730620 euro

250 dollar = 250 × 0.7306 = 182.65 European euro

He spent 150 euros on his trip = 182.65 - 150 = 32.65 euro

Now we convert 32.65 euro to dollar

1 European euro = 1.3687 US dollar

32.65 European euro = 1.3687 × 32.65 = 44.688 ≈ 44.70 US dollars

Option A. 44.70 US dollars
