Hello<BR><BR>I know the Euro is now the currency in Europe but some books and sites still have everything in francs. What would 100 francs be in Euro or US currency?<BR><BR>Thanks for your help!

Hello, everyone!<BR>Despite her 78 years, my French mom is juggling with FF and Euros like the best of them. Here is the formula she and other French people are using: <BR>FF Value + 50% of that value : 10 = Euro value (you will find easier to round number to the nearest decimal). <BR><BR>Article costs FF160<BR>160 + 80 = 240 : 10 = 24 Euros <BR>According to the currency converter<BR>160FF = 24.3918 <BR><BR>The more you practice, the easier it gets.. Pretty soon <BR>you will be as much at ease with the Euro as you are with the dollar. <BR>May this little trick helps in making your stay in France a more pleasant one.<BR><BR>Fabien<BR>
