6. Ming was planning a trip to Western Europe. Before going, she did some research and learned that the exchange rate is 8 Tala for $2. How many Tala would she get if she exchanged $10?
What do you think the answer is?
8/2 * 10 = 40 Tara.
To find out how many Tala Ming would get if she exchanged $10, we need to use the exchange rate provided: 8 Tala for $2.
First, we need to calculate the exchange rate per dollar. We do this by dividing the number of Tala (8) by the number of dollars (2).
Exchange rate per dollar = 8 Tala / 2 dollars = 4 Tala/dollar
Now, to find out how many Tala Ming would get for $10, we multiply the amount of dollars ($10) by the exchange rate per dollar (4 Tala/dollar).
Tala received = $10 x 4 Tala/dollar = 40 Tala
Therefore, if Ming exchanges $10, she would receive 40 Tala.
