Okay might be a studpid question, but I am asking anyway:
the question goes like:
A US dollar costs 7.5 Norweigian kr, but at the same dollar can be purchased for 1.25 Swiss francs. What is the Norweigian Kr/Swiss franc exchange?
My answer would be:
Først to calculate what 1 Norweigian kr is in dollare so-->(1kr*$1)/7.5kr=$0.13333
And then do the same for Swiss francs--> (1Swiss francs*$1)/ 1.25= $0.8
and then the Norweigian kr/Swiss franc rate is: (0.8$/swiss franc)/(0.1333$/kr)=6 Norweigian kr/Swiss franc???
Don't give me the answer just tell me if I am totally lost and help me a bit!!
I have one more question:
Okay here:
In Munich a bratwurst costs 5 euros: a hot dog costs $4 at Bosten's Fenway park: at en exchange rate of $1.50/per euro, what is the price of a brustwurst in terms of hot dogs?
My answer:
First --> How many dollards does it cost to buy a Brustwurst?
(1.50$/Euro)* 5 euro= $7.5
so ($7.5 per brustwurst)/($ per hot dog)= 1, 875 hot dog pr brustwurst?
righ or?

Who's coming with me?
For the first question, you have correctly calculated the exchange rates for both Norwegian kr and Swiss francs in terms of US dollars. To find the Norwegian kr/Swiss franc exchange rate, you need to divide the exchange rate of Norwegian kr ($0.13333) by the exchange rate of Swiss francs ($0.8). So the calculation would look like this:
Norwegian kr/Swiss franc = (0.13333$/kr) / (0.8$/Swiss franc)
= 0.16666 Norwegian kr/Swiss franc
Therefore, the Norwegian kr/Swiss franc exchange rate is approximately 0.16666 Norwegian kr/Swiss franc.
For the second question, you have also correctly calculated the cost of a bratwurst in terms of US dollars. To find the price of a bratwurst in terms of hot dogs, you need to divide the cost of a bratwurst in US dollars ($7.5) by the cost of a hot dog in US dollars ($4). So the calculation would look like this:
Price of a bratwurst in terms of hot dogs = ($7.5 per bratwurst) / ($4 per hot dog)
= 1.875 hot dogs per bratwurst
Therefore, the price of a bratwurst in terms of hot dogs is 1.875 hot dogs per bratwurst.
