The import com.google.ads cannot be resolved

Question

I have encountered a problem while I was adding ads to my app. The problem is that when I import the ads, it gives me an error. The error is The import com.google.ads cannot be resolved . I don't know how to resolve it. I have checked the internet and banged my head on the wall for the past week. Nothing is working. Here's what I have:

My Android SDK Manager:

My JAR files:

Order and Export:

Project Explorer:

For my project build target in project.properties, it is target=Google Inc.:Google APIs:17

What am I doing wrong? Do I need to add something? Any help regarding this problem is greatly appreciated.

EDIT

Here is my AndroidManifest.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.currencyconverter"
android:versionCode="1"
android:versionName="1.0" >

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE"/>

<supports-screens
    android:largeScreens="true"
    android:normalScreens="true"
    android:smallScreens="true"
    android:xlargeScreens="true" />

<uses-sdk
    android:minSdkVersion="13"
    android:targetSdkVersion="18" />

<application
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
    <activity
        android:name="com.example.currencyconverter.MainActivity2"
        android:label="@string/app_name" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>

</application>

You have added the zip and not the jar in your eclipse build path. Unzip the zipped file, take the jar out of it and add it to your eclipse build path.
