Answer:

18.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

For this question, you need to set up a proportion. The ratio on each side of the equal sign is dollars  over pounds.

Proportion

15/8 = x / 10                     Cross Multiply

Solution

8x = 15 * 10                      Combine

8x = 150                           Divide by 8

x = 150/8

x = 18.75
