Answer 1

Answer

210 pounds

Explanation

First, we are going to find the exchange rate from dollars to pounds.

We know form our problem that 800 dollars are 560 pounds. so:

$\frac{560pounds}{800dollars} =0.7$ pounds per dollar.

Next, we are going to multiply our exchange rate by the number of dollars we want to change, 300:

$300dollars*\frac{0.7pounds}{dollar} =210pounds$

We will get 210 pounds for 300 dollars
