Suppose you visit Mexico and you want to estimate the cost of a jacket in U.S. dollars. The jacket costs 1,258 pesos. The exchange rate is $0.117 = 1 peso or 8.54 pesos = $1. The 1,258-peso jacket is worth $147.19. When you shop, you can estimate the price in dollars by either multiplying or dividing. Multiply: 1,258 pesos • $0.117/peso ≈ 1,258 • $0.10 = $125.80 Divide: 1,258 pesos ÷ 8.54 pesos/dollar ≈ 1,200 ÷ 8/$1 = $150 Estimate the price of a shirt that costs 326 pesos and the price of a souvenir that costs 45 Pesos PLEASE HELP I'm BEGGING!!!
