Accepted Solution
A:
The answer is D. The first thing to do is to check units. The unit for the answer should be AUD since we are converting USD to AUD, so only C and D work. 1 USD is equal to 1.0343 AUD, instead of the other way around (1USD=0.9668AUD), which means 80 USD should be multiplied by 1.0343 AUD/1USD, because AUD is cheaper and there should be more AUDthan USD after conversion.
