The watch is cheaper in Geneva, Switzerland by a value of £20

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the city in which the watch is cheaper, what we need to do is to express the price of the watch in the same currency.

Since pounds is also used in the b part of the question, it would be easier working with it.

In Geneva, the price of the watch is 193.75 CHF

from our conversion formula;

£1 = 1.55 CHF

£x = 193.75 CHF

We cross multiply to get the value of x

(193.75 * 1)/1.55

= 193.75/1.55 = £125

We can see that the watch costs less in Geneva and higher in Manchester

By how much is it cheaper?

We can calculate this by subtracting the value in Geneva from the value in Manchester

That would be 145-125 = £20 cheaper
