Question

In July 2014 one Mexican peso was worth 0.075 U.S. dollars. How many Mexican pesos was $133.00 U.S. dollars worth?

Answer 1

Answer:

1,773.33 Mexican pesos

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion where x was how many Mexican pesos it was worth:

$\frac{1}{0.075}$ = $\frac{x}{133}$

Cross multiply and solve for x:

133 = 0.075x

1773.33 = x

So, it was worth approximately 1,773.33 Mexican pesos
