Answer 1

At the moment $5 is worth £2.50.  You will be able to buy the following: 1 shot of spirit drink, "Hello" or "OK" magazine (Celebrity New etc), Pre-packed sandwich, medium coffee.  These are just averages, everything will be different depending on the shop or area.  Things in London will be more expensive than things in the countryside.

Answer 2

Letting you know that "the pound" is the term used for our money..like the dollar is your term for your money....

currently you get  two ponds fifty (£2.50) for your five american dollars.

The exchange rate is --1 US dollar = 50 pence( half a pound, 100 pence make a pound).

The rate is 1 is to 2..

hope this helps...
