d-$13.89
M6y answer is D
Right again
The answer is d
To calculate how much Charlene will be charged in U.S. dollars, we need to divide the number of pesos she charged to her credit card by the exchange rate from MXN to USD.
The souvenir cost 161 pesos, so we divide 161 by 11.59:
161 / 11.59 = 13.89
Therefore, Charlene's card will be charged $13.89 in U.S. dollars.
Your answer, D, is correct.
To calculate how much Charlene's credit card will be charged in U.S. dollars, we need to convert the amount from pesos to dollars using the given exchange rate.
First, divide the amount of the souvenir in pesos (161 pesos) by the exchange rate (11.59 MXN to USD) to find the equivalent amount in U.S. dollars:
161 pesos / 11.59 MXN to USD = 13.89 USD
Therefore, Charlene's credit card will be charged approximately $13.89.
So, your answer is correct. The correct option is (d) $13.89.
