What operation do we use to convert Uganda Shillings into a foreign currency?

Addition, because we are combining two currencies into one total

Division, because the exchange rate tells us how many shillings equal 1 foreign unit, and we want to know how many of those units we have

Subtraction, because we are removing the foreign currency's value from our shillings

Squaring the amount, since currency conversion always involves powers
