Work this out and show me your method please
How many Euros could be bought for 20,000 Yen if the exchange rate is 1.62 Euro = £1.00 and 186 Yen = £1.00?
20,000 / 186 = £107.53
107.53 * 1.62 = 174.20 Euros
20,000 Yen is 151.75 Euros....
i worked that out by.. actually I'm lying - I never worked it out at all. Just used www.xe.com and their handy currency converter

107.53 * 1.62 = 174.2 euros
Done
question 2......
I got it first!
Tell me where I can get 1.62 Euros to the pound please.
With no other information, the following two-step method is the only one we can be reasonably certain of:
Start with 20,000 Yen.
The rate you give says number of £=number of yen / 186
Let us assume this is the rate for buying pounds with Yen.
No. £ =20,000/186=107.52...
Let us assume you can only buy whole £s
You buy £107.
The rate you give says number of Euros=number of £ * 1.62
Let us assume this is the rate for buying Euros with £.
No. Euros =107*1.62=173.34
Let us assume you can only buy whole Euros
You buy 173 Euros.
