Kathy needs money for her trip to Europe. If she has $300$ US dollars in the bank but wants to withdraw half of it in British pounds and half of it in euros, how many more euros than pounds will she have? Assume $1$ pound is equal to $1.64$ USD and $1$ euro is equal to $1.32$ USD, and round to the nearest whole number.

Half of 300 is 150.  Dividing 150 by 1.64, you get 91 (rounded to the nearest integer).  Then divide the other half by 1.32, which gives us 114 (rounded to the nearest integer).  So the answer is 114 - 91 = 23.
