E= 17/20 D

a) How many euros have the same value as 1 U.S. Dollar? euros

b) How many U.S. Dollars have the same value as 1 euro? dollars

Answer:

a) 0.85 euros

b) 1.18 dollars

Explanation:

The equation is given as:

E= 17/20 D

a) How many euros have the same value as 1 U.S. Dollar? euros

E = 17/20D

D = 1 dollar

Hence:

E = 17/20 × 1

E = 0.85 euros

b) How many U.S. Dollars have the same value as 1 euro? dollars

E = 17/20D

E = 1 euro

1 = 17/20D

D = 1 ÷ 17/20

D = 1 × 20/17

D = 1.1764705882 dollars

D = 1.18 dollars
