Given: Rob is going over his currency exchange receipts from his trip to Japan and South Korea.

The exchange rate of US dollars to Japanese yen is  [tex]1 : 87.441[/tex].

⇒ $1= 87.441 yens

The exchange rate of Japanese yen to South Korean is [tex]1:12.395.[/tex]

⇒ 1 yen = 12.395 won

[tex]\Rightarrow87.441\text{ yens} =87.441\times12.395\\\\\Rightarrow87.441\text{ yens} =1083.831195\text {won}[/tex]
