Question

Janine will be traveling to Botswana, where the unit of currency is called the pula, which means “rain” in the local language. Suppose, $1 is equivalent to 7 pula.
If Janine has $500 to spend in Botswana, how many pula will she have to spend?

Answer 1

Now let’s break this down, $1 = 7
we will be doing 500 x 7
500 x 7
7 x 5 is 35
there are 2 0’s left so we just add the 0’s to 35 meaning the answer is 3500
