One can find information on how to convert pounds to euros by visiting financial websites, such as XE.com or OANDA.com, where currency conversion tools and rates are provided. Additionally, many banks and financial institutions offer currency conversion services and provide up-to-date exchange rates for pounds to euros.
To convert pounds to euros, you multiply by however many Euros there are to 1 Pound. The exchange rate is constantly fluctuating, so you'll need to find out what the current rate is (e.g. using a web search engine to find an exchange rate site). At the moment (11:22 on 14 Aug 2015), the exchange rate is £1 = 1.39947 euros, so to convert pounds to euros you would multiply by 1.39947. Note that this is "accurate" to a thousandth of a penny - you will need to round to the nearest penny. Also, if you are looking to exchange some Pounds for Euros the rate you get from the seller (of the Euros) will likely be less than this rate (but fixed for a day) AND you'll likely have to pay extra commission (commission over and above the commission hidden in the exchange rates*: they buy back from you at a worse rate than they sell to you, both rates worse than the published exchange rate [found above]). * It is this difference of buy/sell rates that means that anyone advertising "Commission Free" is really lying as if it were truly commission free you could convert £1 to Euros and back again and still have £1 at the end.
