Answer:

[tex]12.5[/tex] Danish Krones

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of US dollars to Danish Krone is

[tex]1:2.50[/tex]


Let [tex]x[/tex] Danish krones give $5.


Then we can again write the ratio,

[tex]5:x[/tex]

The proportion is

[tex]5:x=1:2.50[/tex]


We rewrite the ratios as fractions to obtain,

[tex]\frac{5}{x}=\frac{1}{2.5}[/tex]

We cross multiply to get,

[tex]2.5 \times 5=x[/tex]

This implies that,

[tex]12.5=x[/tex]


Therefore [tex]12.5[/tex] Danish Krones will get you $5
