Can someone please help me with this. I'm not getting the right answer. Jill traveled to canada and bought a lamp for 460 canadian dollars. In US dollars (to the nearest cent)this is equivalent to
577.25
517.77
450.52
480.66
Can you please show me how you got your answer.The currency does not match any of these???
The current exchange rate is 460 = about U.S. $350.
Either your question is way out of date, or there's a typo somewhere. Ask your teacher.

You did not state the rate of exchange, without it any of the answers are possible
Thanks. I know but they don't give me a rate of exchange. That's why I'm having a difficult time.
To convert Canadian dollars to US dollars, we need to use the exchange rate between the two currencies. As of the time of this response, the exchange rate is approximately 1 Canadian dollar = 0.80 US dollars.
To calculate the equivalent amount in US dollars, we can multiply the Canadian dollar amount by the exchange rate:
$460 * 0.80 = 368
Therefore, the equivalent amount in US dollars to the nearest cent is $368.
Unfortunately, none of the provided answer choices match this calculated amount. It seems like there might be an error or a mistake in the provided options. It's possible that the options were based on a different exchange rate or there was a typo in the question. In any case, based on the given exchange rate, the correct answer is not among the options provided.
