Jean Changed 20,000 Yen into dollars.
How much did she receive? give your answer correct to 2 decimal place.
SHOW ME THE WORK HOW YOU DO IT!!!

Answer 1

128.65 Japanese Yen = 1$
1 yen = $ 1/128.65
20,000 yen = $ 20000*1/128.65

= $ 155.46

Answer 2

use the conversion factor 1 dollar = 128.65 yen but write as a fraction to perform the conversion:

20,000 yen * (1 dollar/ 128.65 yen) and cancel the measure yen an you are left with dollars

20,000 / 128.65 = $155.46

Answer 3

just divide: 20,000 Yen / 128.65 Japanese Yen = 155.460551 dollars

;)

or
1 dollar = 128.65 Japanese Yen.
Then 'x' dollars = 20000 yen.

cross multiply
128.65 x = 20000 yen
therefore , the unknown ie, x = 20000 yen / 128.65
which is equal to 155.460551 dollars

;) cheers

Answer 4

128.65 yen = $1 us

so 20,000/128.65 = 155.46

so $155.46 the actual result goes many decimal places farther but the next digit is 0 so you can round off.

Answer 5

for every dollar one had to spend 128.65 Yen
so how many dollars in 20,000 Yen is like asking how many groups of 128.65 in 20,000 so you divide 20,000 by 128.65 or

20,000/128.65= 155.46 dollars

Answer 6

Simple..

128.65 yen = 1dollar
20,000 yen = (1/128.65)*20,000
= 0.00777302 * 20,000
= 155.47 dollars...

Hope it ws helpful

x = $155.46
