Respuesta :

the value of the US dollar would be lower as it is worth less than 1 british pound.

Answer:

The first ratio is

[tex]1USD : 1 \£[/tex]

That is, 1 US Dollar equals 1 British Pound.

Then, the last ratio is

[tex]1USD:0.7\£[/tex]

Which means that for one US Dollar you would get 70 cents of a British Pound.

As you can see, the second represents a devaluation of the US Dollar against the British Pounds. It has a lower value.
