A student bought a pair of sunglasses in the USA.
He paid $35.50
In England, an identical pair of sunglasses costs £26.99
The exchange rate is £1 = $1.42
In which country were the sunglasses cheaper, and by how much?

Respuesta :

You almost have it!!!

all you do is multiply 26.99*1.42

this equals 38.33 dollars

35.50 is less than 38.33

thus, USA is cheaper than England.
