Get exchange rate from Exchange Rate table with only starting date

I have a table with exchange rates holding only the starting date of the exchange rate. I have another table for daily sales data. I want to calculate the exchange rate on the day in the Sales table based on applicable starting date. 

 

For example.

 

Exchange table

Starting DateRate
01/01/221.2
04/01/221.5
08/01/221.7

 

Sales table with expected exchange rate from table above.

Sales Posting DateExpected Exchange rate

01/01/22

1.2
02/01/221.2
05/01/221.5

@Danch89 , A new column

 

new column =
var _max = maxx(filter(Exchange, Exchange[Starting Date] <= Sales[sales posting date]), Exchange[Starting Date])
return
maxx(filter(Exchange, Exchange[Starting Date] =_max), Exchange[Rate])
