Hi

I have two questions to ask you in this post.

Do you find the following expression correct and natural?

Quote:
"One Britain pound is equal to 150 Pakistani rupees."

Secondly, could you please tell me of any verb that I can use instead of is equal to--I mean some verb that means "is equal to"?

Many thanks

Tom

Hi Tom,

I would say one British pound and perhaps just say: equals 150 Pakistani rupees.
