Michael exchanged 1000 US dollars for the Croatian currency, which is called the Kuna. The exchange rate was 5.81 Kuna to 1 dollar. How many Croatian Kuna did Michael get? Explain how you know.

Since the exchange rate is 1 dollar=5.81 Kuna

1000 dollars=?

1000/1*5.81 Kuna = 5810 Kuna

Therefore Michael will get 5810 Kuna for 1000 dollars.

Since you know that 1 dollar is equivalent to 5.81 Kuna, all you need to do is multiply 1000 by 5.8 to get its equivalent in Kuna.

For this problem, just divide 1000 by 5.81 and the answer will be 172.12
