Whatever organisation you are planning on using to carry out the transaction will have its own 'version' of the exchange rate, e.g. your bank, PayPal etc.

surely it MUST have taken longer, and more effort to log onto ph and find this answer, rather than just typing into google on your home page?

plus its taken me about 60 seconds to read and then write this, hope neiter of us are short on time in the future. smile

Bear in mind the rate given on currency converters is usually the interbank rate and will not be the rate you would actually get if you changed the money at a bureau de change for example (which would use the tourist rate).

Go to Google, and type in:

"143 US dollars in pounds"

It'll work it out for you, based on the current exchange rate. Google also will convert pretty much anything to pretty much anything else.

What he said. Google does all manner of smart things. Search, exchange, even maths (ie "4 x 12" gives 48.) Clever, eh?
