It's time to play everyone's favorite game: "Convert that Kroner!"  Look at the receipts to see how much I paid for food, Tivoli, etc.  Remember to divide by 6 to convert Kroner to US Currency.  Are you surprised to see how much Tivoli cost?  For those of you have traveled to Disney World or Disneyland, how does Tivoli compare in price?
Add the Kroner and divide by 6 to convert to US currency.  This is all the Danish Kroner that I brought back to show to students.   Each coin is worth the value listed to the right.  Example: For "2 Kroner", you should add 2 + 2  + 2 = 6 Kroner.
Receipts...convert to US currency!
Tivoli =294 Danish Kroner
Dinner = 150 Danish Kroner
Lunch= 56.50 Danish Kroner
Expensive Dinner= 218 Danish Kroner
Prices of snacks in Danish Kroner
