Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

Because CA$1.20 buys US$1.00, one Canadian dollar is worth 1/1.20 = 0.833333... US dollars. Use that US-dollar equivalent to convert into pesos and rupees.

1) Relevant knowledge points and concepts
- Exchange rates given are prices per US dollar (how many units of foreign currency equal US$1). To find how many units of another currency equal CA$1, first express CA$1 in US dollars, then convert that USD amount into the target currency using the given rates.
- Multiplication and division of exchange rates (unit conversion).

2) Step-by-step reasoning and intermediate calculations
- Given: US$1 = CA$1.20, US$1 = 12 Mexican pesos, US$1 = 45 Indian rupees.
- Convert CA$1 to USD: CA$1 = 1 / 1.20 US$ = 0.833333... US$ (or 5/6 US$).
- Convert that USD amount to Mexican pesos: 0.833333... US$ × 12 pesos/US$ = 10 pesos.
  Calculation: (5/6) × 12 = 5 × 2 = 10.
- Convert same USD amount to Indian rupees: 0.833333... US$ × 45 rupees/US$ = 37.5 rupees.
  Calculation: (5/6) × 45 = 5 × 7.5 = 37.5.

3) Why the correct answer is correct
- The correct conversion requires inverting the Canada rate (since rates are given per US$) and then applying the per-US$ rates for Mexico and India. That yields exactly 10 pesos and 37.5 rupees per CA$1.

4) Why the other options are incorrect
- (a) 12; 37.5 assumes CA$1 equals US$1 for pesos (incorrect), so gives 12 pesos instead of 10.
- (b) 12; 73.5 mixes incorrect conversions (12 pesos is wrong; 73.5 rupees is result of other mis-scaling).
- (c) 12; 45 treats CA$1 as equal to US$1 and also fails to convert to rupees (uses 45 directly), both incorrect.

Conclusion: One Canadian dollar equals 10 Mexican pesos and 37.5 Indian rupees, matching answer d.
