Hey all I've done some math- well a lot of math today and I've figured out some conversions from Wizard Money to muggle money. The fallowing chart should be easy enough to read. if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Now recall that European money is different than american money. So then you must know th fallowing.

0.6831 Eur= $1 USD

Need a better amount? OKay then, 3.01 Euro= Aprox $4.40 USD

Okay now, 1 Galleon is about 3.01 Euro.

Still with me? Right now we have the fallowing information written down:

0.6831E= $1 USD
1G=3.01E
3.01E= $4.40 USD

Make sense?

OKay. Now if we translate Galleons Stickles and Knuts into our money the first few numbers would be like so:

USD Galleons Stickles Knuts
1 = 0 = 1 = 19
2 = = 3 = 10

When do we get into Galleons?
Well this is the only place where I can find a pattern to help me explain. You see, for every eleven USD we add a Galleon.

Confused?

Try looking at this chart. We'll ignore the stickles and the Knuts for now, as they will only confuse you.

USD Galleons
11= 1
21= 2
31= 3

Get my drift? Let me know if you want to add anything, or would like to know more or even if you have a question about what I put on here. I'm not very good at explaining things.

ALso if you don't want to bother with the math I found this as a great site for automatic conversions:

Now it's easier to calculate how much money Harry Potter inherits!
Just now to find out how many galleons he received from his parents...

Wait a second... If one Galleon equals 3.01 Euros and 3.01 Euros equals approximately $4.40 USD, then doesn't one Galleon equal $4.40 USD...?

Yeah...o.o I think all the information is contradictory. Because from the info I found, 1 Galleon is 7.39 euros and 10.09 USD. Wow, galleons are worth a lotttt.

O.o good point. I'll ask my friend (whose far better at math than I am) about it later. Thanks for point it out to me!
