Andrew is planning for a holiday to Australia. He goes to a bank to exchange currency. The rate of exchange between Singapore dollars (S$) and Australian dollars (A$) is A$1 = S$1.33. (a) Andrew wants to change S$1500. (i) How much Australian dollars he will receive, giving your answer correct to the nearest dollars.

[2]

(ii) The bank charges a commission for every exchange. If Andrew has to pay $1527.75 altogether, calculate the commission rate as a percentage of the value of money exchanged. [2] (b) Andrew needs to buy batteries for his camera. If he buys them in Singapore, it will cost him S$5.70. If he buys them in Australia, it will cost him A$4.80. Calculate how much, in Singapore dollars, he can save by buying the batteries in Singapore. [2] (c) Andrew will be driving in Australia, so he compares the car hire rates from three car companies, Ride Best, Swift Co and Auto Mobile to get the best value. The table below shows the charges of the companies, based on the number of days for which the car is hired and the number of kilometers for which the car is driven. Company
