Answer 1

Answer:

c. 2.7/4 loaves of British bread per loaf of French bread

Step-by-step explanation:

In France a loaf of bread costs 3 euros.

In Great Britain a loaf of bread costs 4 pounds.

The exchange rate is :

1 euro = 0.9 pounds

So, we can calculate the real exchange rate as:

3 euros = $3\times0.9=2.7$

Slo, answer is : 2.7/4 loaves of British bread per loaf of French bread.
