In the table that opens, select the year, month and date you are interested in. Thus, you can find out the official value of the dollar, not only next month, but also a year ago, for example.
Step 3
The indicated value of USD is valid for internal settlements between organizations. Turning to a bank as an individual, you may find that the currency is sold there at a higher or lower price. Therefore, just before going to a particular bank, go to its website. Exchange rates are usually posted on the home page. You can look at information from several banks operating in your locality and decide which conversion rate is more profitable.

Or, in the top line, click on the name of the country - then you will see a summary table of data from different sellers.
Step 5
If you are not comfortable with manually dividing the amount of rubles by the cost of one dollar, open the online currency calculator. Select the names of the currency units you want to sell and buy, their amount and start the calculation.
