How'd you get 1,150,000? The answer would be 9583 I think?
Answered by Champ
120x = 15000000
x = 12500

If the exchange rate is 120 yen for 1 american dollar, then 120 needs the be multiplied to the number of american dollars the car must be sold at (which we call x) , if you divide both sides by 120, you should get x = 12500.

The final answer is that the car would have sold at $12500 american dollars to bring 1500000 yen.

$1.00/120 yes = $x/1,500,00
x = 1500000/120
= 12500

bob and champ both got the same correct answer.
