Answer 2

Answer:

Option B. 32775.69 Mexican dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given question Marge traded 2900 Australian dollars to Mexican pesos.

Fees charged for the conversion was 45 Australian dollars.

So remaining dollars will be = Total Australian dollars - Fees charged

                                              = 2900 - 45

                                              = 1855

Now we will covert these Australian dollars to Mexican pesos

Since 1 Australian dollar = 11.4801 Mexican pesos

So 1855 Australian dollar = 1855×11.4801

                                          = 32775.6855

                                          ≈ 32775.69 Mexican pesos

Option B. is the answer.
