If the euro has strengthened, then it will buy more $'s. So the exchange rate becomes 1 euro to $2.4 So the euro receipt will be 1000 / 2.4 = 416.67 (Since you got his question from the BPP Revision Kit, I am surprised you needed to ask which the correct answer is - the Revision Kit must surely have answers at the back?)
