To solve this problem we can use simple proportion
If 
270$ -------------------------3000 pesos
x $  ---------------------------100 pesos               (x$ means that we dont know how much)
Now we crossmultiplying to get proportion
x*3000=270*100
Now we just to solve eq
3000x=27000  /:3000
x=27000:3000
x=9$ - its the result
