Foreign Exchange Rates Worksheet Generator
Make foreign-exchange worksheets in seconds. Each one gives students a random exchange rate between two world currencies, then word problems that convert from one currency to another by multiplying — and, at Level 2, convert back by dividing. A clear, real-world way to practice currency conversion, rates, and division — printable, with a built-in answer key.

How It Works
Make a worksheet in four steps
- Choose your options. Set how many questions and pick Level 1 (one-way conversion) or Level 2 (also reverse the rate), and keep the answer key on.
- Generate. Press Generate worksheet — the tool builds a fresh set of currencies, rates, and amounts.
- Students solve it. They read each exchange rate and convert the amount — multiplying to go one way, dividing to go back.
- Print or grade. Keep Include answer key on to print every answer, or turn it off for a clean student copy. Press ↻ New version for a fresh one.
In the Classroom
Six ways to use it
Currency conversion
The core skill: students use an exchange rate to convert an amount from one currency to another.
Multiplying & dividing
Converting one way is multiplication; converting back is division — a clear, motivated use of both operations with decimals.
Understanding exchange rates
Students see what a “1 to r” rate means and how the same two currencies relate in both directions.
World currencies & geography
Problems use 18 real world currencies, a natural tie-in to economics, travel, and geography.
Economics & business math
A fit for an economics, business-math, or global-studies unit on trade and money.
Sub plans & homeschool
A no-prep, self-checking worksheet with an answer key — a new set of rates every time.
What It Teaches
Exchange-rate skills students build
A foreign exchange rate is the rate at which one currency is converted into another. If the rate from one currency to another is 1 to r, you multiply by r to convert one way and divide by r to convert back. Each worksheet gives students a fresh rate and a set of amounts to convert, so they practice both operations with decimals in a real-world context. Pair this with the economics lessons and the money math worksheets for a complete unit on money around the world.
- Read an exchange rate written as “1 to r”
- Convert an amount from one currency to another (multiply)
- Reverse a conversion by dividing by the rate (Level 2)
- Work with decimals in multiplication and division
- Recognize 18 real world currencies
Common Questions
Foreign Exchange Worksheet FAQ
Do I need a membership to use this generator?
Yes — the generator is a full Money Instructor membership feature (the paid plan, not a free account). Full members can make and print unlimited worksheets with answer keys. The page itself is free to read.
How does the worksheet work?
Each worksheet gives a random exchange rate between two world currencies, then word problems that convert an amount from one currency to the other. At Level 1 students convert one way (multiply by the rate); at Level 2 they also convert back (divide by the rate). The answer key fills in every answer.
What is the difference between Level 1 and Level 2?
Level 1 uses only one-way conversions (multiplying by the rate). Level 2 adds reverse conversions, where students divide by the rate to convert back — a harder skill that reinforces the relationship between the two currencies.
What grade level is this for?
It suits grades 6 and up — students should be comfortable multiplying and dividing with decimals. It works well in math, economics, and global-studies classes.
