The exchange rate is constantly changing. You can find out how much 1 yen is worth in your local currency by going to an online currency exchange rate site such as www.xe.com.
Although the exchange rate between the US dollar and the yen has been fluctuating between 80 yen - 120 yen to the dollar, most people generally assume 100 yen = $1 for quick, rough calculations.

@ggsoulsister, that's right! For yen to US dollar conversions, that's a good estimate. Of course, like the answer above says the exchange rate is changing all the time so it's not exact.
