aily Word roblems EEK 16 - DAY 1 Cam's family took a trip from his home in Utah to Canada. Cam discovered that a Canadian dollar not only looked different but also had a different value from the American dollar! When Cam's parents exchanged \$100 American dollars into Canadian dollars,

they received approximately CAD 130, depending on the current exchange rate. This trip was not only a fun vacation but also a finance lesson in real-world currency exchange! It's fascinating to see how different countries value their currencies and how that affects international travel and shopping. During their trip, Cam learned to be cautious when making purchases and converting money. A common mistake travelers often make is assuming that a dollar is a dollar, regardless of the currency. By being aware of exchange rates and potential fees, families can budget better and enjoy their trip without worrying about overspending!
