To convert an amount of money from one currency to another, you use the exchange rate between those two currencies. In this case, we need to convert 150 USD to Japanese yen. The exchange rate table provides the necessary information:
For Japanese yen, the exchange rate is given as:
- 99.30437 Japanese yen per 1 USD
To find out how much 150 USD is in Japanese yen, you multiply the amount in USD by the exchange rate:
[tex]\[ \text{Amount in Japanese yen} = \text{Amount in USD} \times \text{Exchange rate (Units/1 USD)} \][/tex]
Substituting the given values:
[tex]\[ \text{Amount in Japanese yen} = 150 \, \text{USD} \times 99.30437 \, \text{yen/USD} \][/tex]
Therefore, the expression to convert 150 USD to Japanese yen is:
[tex]\[ 150 \times 99.30437 \][/tex]
This multiplication yields the result:
[tex]\[ 150 \times 99.30437 = 14895.6555 \][/tex]
So 150 USD is equivalent to 14895.6555 Japanese yen.
