Horace is seeking to exchange money in preparation for his trip to Uruguay. He will need 5,000 Uruguayan pesos, and the exchange rate between the US dollar and the Uruguayan peso is 1:19.924. The currency exchange agent Horace is using requires that a 5% surcharge be paid when converting currency. Taking the surcharge into account, how many US dollars will it take Horace to get 5,000 pesos

$263.50

Explanation:

Calculation to determine how many US dollars will it take Horace to get 5,000 pesos

First step is to determine Total Uruguayan pesos to buy

Total Uruguayan pesos= 5,000 Uruguayan pesos + (5,000 Uruguayan pesos* 0.05)

Total Uruguayan pesos=5,000 Uruguayan pesos + 250 Uruguayan pesos

Total Uruguayan pesos = 5,250 Uruguayan pesos

Now let determine how many US dollars will it take Horace to get 5,000 pesos

US dollars needed = (5,250 Ur.$)/(19.924 Ur.$/U$S)

US dollars needed =$263,50

Therefore how many US dollars will it take Horace to get 5,000 pesos will be $263,50
