Answer

11000 UAE Dirhams\text{11000 UAE Dirhams}

Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Convert Euros to Kenyan Shillings (Ksh).

    The tourist is selling Euros to the bureau, so the bureau is buying Euros. We use the "Buying in Ksh" rate for Euros.

    Amount in Ksh=Amount in Euros×Buying rate for Euro\text{Amount in Ksh} = \text{Amount in Euros} \times \text{Buying rate for Euro} Amount in Ksh=5000 Euros×129.80 Ksh/Euro\text{Amount in Ksh} = 5000 \text{ Euros} \times 129.80 \text{ Ksh/Euro} Amount in Ksh=649000 Ksh\text{Amount in Ksh} = 649000 \text{ Ksh}
  2. Calculate the remaining Kenyan Shillings after spending.

    Remaining Ksh=Total Ksh−Ksh spent\text{Remaining Ksh} = \text{Total Ksh} - \text{Ksh spent} Remaining Ksh=649000 Ksh−321200 Ksh\text{Remaining Ksh} = 649000 \text{ Ksh} - 321200 \text{ Ksh} Remaining Ksh=327800 Ksh\text{Remaining Ksh} = 327800 \text{ Ksh}
  3. Convert the remaining Kenyan Shillings to UAE Dirhams.

    The tourist is buying UAE Dirhams from the bureau, so the bureau is selling UAE Dirhams. We use the "Selling in Ksh" rate for UAE Dirhams.

    Amount in UAE Dirhams=Remaining KshSelling rate for UAE Dirhams\text{Amount in UAE Dirhams} = \frac{\text{Remaining Ksh}}{\text{Selling rate for UAE Dirhams}} Amount in UAE Dirhams=327800 Ksh29.80 Ksh/Dirham\text{Amount in UAE Dirhams} = \frac{327800 \text{ Ksh}}{29.80 \text{ Ksh/Dirham}} Amount in UAE Dirhams=11000 UAE Dirhams\text{Amount in UAE Dirhams} = 11000 \text{ UAE Dirhams}

    The amount in UAE Dirhams that she received is 11000 UAE Dirhams\text{11000 UAE Dirhams}.
