Answer 1

Answer:

Ron will be paying 195.65 euros for the camera.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved as a rule of three problem.

The exchange rate is $1.15 per euro, that is, 1 euro is $1.15.

Ron is willing to pay $225. How many euros is this? So:

1 euro - $1.15

x euros - $225.

$1.15x = 225$

$x = \frac{225}{1.15}$

$x = 195.65$

Ron will be paying 195.65 euros for the camera.
