    Answer: an increase in the quantity of Brazilian currency that can be purchased with a dollar.

    Explanation: An increase in the price of the Brazilian currency in relation to the dollar will increase the real exchange rate. This is because the exchange rate tells the amount of Brazilian baskets a US basket can buy.

    The best option to relate the exchange rate with is an increase in the purchasing power of the dollar.
