\[150 \text{ dollars} =150 \text{ dollars } \cdot \frac{1 \text{ pound }}{1.6 \text{ dollars }}=? \\ \text{ we see that fraction I multiplied by equals 1 since we are given } \\ 1 \text{ pound } =1.6 \text{ dollars } \\ \text{ now we knew to put the dollar part on bottom } \\ \text{ because we want dollar part to cancel }\]
