A coffee cost 2 Cyprus pounds in 2007. Using the fixed rate of 0.585274 pounds per euro, what was the price in euros?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D. About 3.42 euros

  1. Step 1: Divide the pounds by the rate. Step 2. 2 divided by 0.585274 is about 3.42. Answer: About 3.42 euros. Why not the others: 1.17 multiplies by the rate; 2.00 ignores the rate; 5.85 is a decimal slip.
