In 2005 admission to the Bronx zoo was $6 for a child and admission to the toronto zoo was 11 candian dollars. Using the exchange rate of 1.2403 candian dollars per U.s dollar which zoo's admission costs more in U.S dollars.
I think its Bronx Zoo.
11/1.2403 = 8.868822
The Toronto Zoo costs $8.87
How did you arrive at that conclusion?
11 can x (1 US/1.2403 can) = ??
no you have to use the info in the thing i typed its on the top
To determine which zoo's admission costs more in U.S dollars, we need to find the cost of admission in U.S dollars for both the Bronx Zoo and the Toronto Zoo.
Given:
- Admission to the Bronx Zoo in 2005: $6 for a child
- Admission to the Toronto Zoo in 2005: 11 Canadian dollars
- Exchange rate: 1.2403 Canadian dollars per U.S dollar
To find the cost of admission to the Toronto Zoo in U.S dollars, we need to convert the Canadian dollars to U.S dollars using the exchange rate. We can do this by multiplying the cost in Canadian dollars by the exchange rate:
11 Canadian dollars * 1.2403 Canadian dollars per U.S dollar = 13.6433 U.S dollars
So the cost of admission to the Toronto Zoo in U.S dollars would be approximately $13.64.
Comparing this to the cost of admission to the Bronx Zoo, which is $6, we can see that the cost of admission to the Toronto Zoo is higher in U.S dollars. Therefore, your intuition is incorrect, and the admission to the Toronto Zoo costs more in U.S dollars.
