Jordan’s family exchanged 250 dollars for 5000 pesos. Jordan bought a sweater for 550 pesos. How many dollars did the sweater cost? If Jordan’s family exchanges 200 dollars at the same rate, how many pesos will they have?

Respuesta :

If Jordan’s family exchanges 200 dollars at the same rate, they will have 4000 pesos

If Jordan’s family exchanged 250 dollars for 5000 pesos, then;

250 dollars = 5000 pesos

In order to determine the cost of sweater bought at 550 pesos, we can write:

x = 550 pesos

Divide both expressions

250/x = 5000/550

5000x = 137,500

x = 137,500/5000

x = 27.5

Hence the sweater cost $27.5

If Jordan’s family exchanges 200 dollars at the same rate, then;

$200 = y

250 dollars = 5000 pesos

Dividing both expressions

200/250 = y/5000

250y = 1000000

y = 1,000,000/250

y = 4000pesos

Hence if Jordan’s family exchanges 200 dollars at the same rate, they will have 4000 pesos
