Hey there :)

We are given:
£ 1 = € 1.17
We need to find
£ 280 = ?

We can do this by ratio/fraction
[tex] \frac{pounds}{euros} [/tex] or pounds : euros

[tex] \frac{1}{1.17} = \frac{280}{?} [/tex]
We need to cross multiply to find the value of € when £280

? = 1.17 x 280
? = 327.6

£280 ≈ €327.6

The exchange rate at the post office is £1 = €1.17. Then you will get for £280 is € 327.6.

Given :

£1 = €1.17

Solution :

  • This question is solved by using unitary method and in simple terms, the unitary method is used to find the value of a single unit from a given multiple.
  • Once we have found the value of a single unit, then we can calculate the value of the required units by multiplying the single value unit. This method is majorly used for ratio and proportion concept.

Therefore if £1 is equal to €1.17 than £280 in is given by:

[tex]=\dfrac{280\times 1.17}{1}[/tex]

= € 327.6

The exchange rate at the post office is £1 = €1.17. Then you will get for £280 is € 327.6.
