Write a paragraph that explains why a traveler will need to visit a currency exchange. Include how exchange rates are determined.
A. You have $25 in the United States. Imagine you are visiting India in 2013 to check out new products. How much would your $25 be in Indian rupees? (Be sure to show your work.) B. You read a news article about a great new invention in Canada. You think maybe you want to visit Canada instead of India in 2013. How much would your $25 be in Canadian dollars? (Be sure to show your work.)

@pooja195 could you maybe help with the paragraph???
Just say something in the lines of "The currency of money is not the same in every country. Different countries have a better economy which makes the value of one dollar in each country different. Currency exchange allows you to convert the money you have in your country to a different currency." Something in the lines of that is fine. You can add examples like to convergence of US dollars to EURO.
oh wow thanks
Money is only good if people accept it. If you're in the US and someone hands you a Euro, then you won't be able to use it. Why not? Because the Euro isn't a currency in the US. Sure some people might collect them, but for the most part, it won't be able to be used to trade for goods or services. So that's why you have to exchange currencies when going to foreign countries. When you exchange currencies, you're basically buying money. If you see, for instance, that 2 Euros = 1 dollar, then that means it costs you 1 dollar to get 2 euros. The same would be true in reverse. So you can see how the dollar is a stronger currency. You can buy more for less. The reason for the exchange rate fluctuating is complicated. Economists don't fully agree even to this day. Though supply and demand is a big factor. The more people want the US dollar, the stronger it gets. The stronger it gets, the harder it is to get (ie, the more expensive it gets). If a disaster happens in a country, then that currency would take a hit. For example, this current election has made the mexican peso decline because people fear that the US will cut some trade ties with Mexico, making the peso less valuable
There's a lot more to the story than those examples, but hopefully you can get a better idea of how it works
wow thats alot lol
oh and the `2 Euros = 1 dollar` was something I made up. You'll need to look up the exchange rate. It changes daily (possibly more frequently)
no problem
thanks
