To determine how many yen Kelvin can buy with [tex]$200 at the current exchange rate, we need to use the provided exchange rate for Japanese yen, which is 124.37 yen per US dollar. 1. First, identify the given exchange rate for Japanese yen: \[ \text{Exchange Rate (yen per USD)} = 124.37 \] 2. Next, calculate the amount of yen that Kelvin can obtain with $[/tex]200 by multiplying the amount in US dollars by the exchange rate:
[tex]\[ \text{yen amount} = 200 \, \text{USD} \times 124.37 \, \text{yen/USD} \][/tex]

3. Perform the multiplication:
[tex]\[ \text{yen amount} = 200 \times 124.37 = 24,874.00 \][/tex]

Therefore, Kelvin can buy 24,874.00 yen with [tex]$200, which corresponds to option D: D. $[/tex]24,874.00$ yen
