Solution

To find out how much money the tourist had left, we need to convert the remaining Kenya Shillings back into US dollars. He had Ksh 107957.5 left and the conversion rate is Ksh 100.0 per dollar. So, we divide the amount in Ksh by the conversion rate:

107957.5 ÷ 100.0 = $1079.575

Rounding to the nearest dollar, the tourist had approximately $1080 left. So, the correct answer is 1080 US dollars.
