Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We are asked to determine the expression that can be used to convert 22 Australian dollars to US dollars.
\(1.2\text{Australian dollar}=1\text{US dollar}\)
Divide both sides by 1.2:
\(\frac{1.2\text{Australian dollar}}{1.2}=\frac{1\text{US dollar}}{1.2}\)
\(1\text{ Australian dollar}=\frac{1\text{US dollar}}{1.2}\)
\(1\text{ Australian dollar}=0.833\text{ US dollar}\)
To convert 22 Australian dollars to US dollars, we will multiply 22 Australian dollar by \(0.833\text{US dollar}\)
Therefore, our required expression would be \(22\text{ AUD}\times 0.833\text{US dollar}\).
