The conversion between Philippine Peso and US Dollar is based on the current exchange rate. The formula used is:

Converted Amount = Amount × Exchange Rate

  • Exchange Rate is the current rate at which one currency can be exchanged for another.

The exchange rate is typically provided by financial institutions or central banks and may change daily.

Worked Example

Let's say you have 10,000 Philippine Pesos and want to convert it to US Dollars. Using an exchange rate of 1 USD = 50 PHP:

Converted Amount = 10,000 PHP × (1 USD / 50 PHP) = 200 USD

So, 10,000 Philippine Pesos is equivalent to 200 US Dollars at this exchange rate.
