Can someone translate this money from euro into US dollars please?

Question

1. 61€

2. 71€

3. 102€

4. 147€

thanks!

it's the prices to see the Palace of Versailles.

Answer 1

1. $85.52

2. $96.05

3. $138.03

4. $198.86

The current exchange rate is 100 € = 135.29 US$

By the way, the entrance fee to the Chateau and grounds from 7 April to 30 September is 20€ on weekdays and 25€  weekends and on public holidays. So it seems to me that the prices you quote are outrageously high.

NB: The Euro/dollar ratio is not fixed but varies over time. Its risen over the last few years after sinking for several years before that. Right now it is likely headed down again.

Answer 2

Multiply the Euro amount by 1.4 to get the dollar amount, including the commission that you will be charged on conversion. Thus, the amounts are approximately

1. $85

2. $99

3. $142

4. $206

Keep in mind that the economic policies of the Bush Administration may lead to further declines in the value of the dollar (and hence a higher total when converted back to dollars).  Only a few years ago, the cost of a Euro was about $0.85, so the first price would have been $52 instead of $85.

Answer 3

1. 61 Euro = 82.46 USD

2. 71 Euro = 95.98 USD

3. 102 Euro = 137.88 USD

4. 147 Euro =  198.71 USD

Thee rates will cahange daily, and you may get a slightly better or worse rate, depending on where you exchange your cash.

You best bet (if you're American like me) is to use your Visa card - usually get a decent rate.

The Palace is a great place to spend a couple of days. I would go when the gardens are all blooming if possible.
