Answer:

the exchange rate between U.S. dollar and German mark be under this system will be of 3 U$D = 1 german mark

Explanation:

We will use gold and silver as a mean to equalize both currencies:

<u>First equivalence between silver and gold:</u>

90 francs = 1 ounce of gold

9 franc = 1 ounce of silver

90/9 = 10 ounce of silver equals 1 ounce of gold.

<u>Now, we convert the german mark to gold:</u>

1 german mark = ounce of silver

10 german mark = ounce of gold.

<u>Finally, we equalize with the US dollars:</u>

30 dollar = ounce of gold = 10 german mark

30 dollars = 10 german mark

3 dollars = 1 german mark
