Walmart offered 2 billion pounds to buy Safeway PLC, a U.K. Supermarket group. Using the tables in the text or handbook, what would this be in U.S. dollars? Round to the nearest hundredth billion. Assume that the exchange per U.S. dollar is .6434 and in the U.S. 1.5542
What is 1.5542 * 2 = $3,108,400,000 billion (3.1 billion): 2 billion /.6434 = $3,108,400,000
