Let’s solve each part step by step.

First, let’s list the prices from the image:
- Scooter: $42
- Rocking Horse: $23
- Teddy: $11
- Slingshot: $8
- Skateboard: $18
- Drum: $36
- Ball: $14

1. Amie wants to buy a drum and a slingshot.
Drum = $36
Slingshot = $8
Total Cost = 36 + 8 =
$44
Amount Tendered = $50
Change = 50 - 44 =
$6
✔ Working: 50 - 44 = 6
---
2. Mr Downing wants to buy three balls.
Ball = $14
Three balls = 14 × 3 =
$42
He gave three $20 bills → 20 + 20 + 20 =
$60
Change = 60 - 42 =
$18
✔ Working: 60 - 42 = 18
---
3. Abbey wants to buy a skateboard and a teddy.
Skateboard = $18
Teddy = $11
Total Cost = 18 + 11 =
$29
She gave two $20 bills → 20 + 20 =
$40
Change = 40 - 29 =
$11
✔ Working: 40 - 29 = 11
---
4. Brad wants to buy a scooter and two slingshots.
Scooter = $42
One slingshot = $8 → Two slingshots = 8 × 2 = $16
Total Cost = 42 + 16 =
$58
He gave $50 + $20 =
$70
Change = 70 - 58 =
$12
✔ Working: 70 - 58 = 12
---
5. Dee has $29. Can she buy a ball and a skateboard? How much more does she need?
Ball = $14
Skateboard = $18
Total needed = 14 + 18 =
$32
Dee has $29 → She is short by 32 - 29 =
$3
✔ So, no, she cannot buy both — she needs $3 more.
---
Final Answer:
Amie: Total Cost $44, Change $6
Mr Downing: Total Cost $42, Change $18
Abbey: Total Cost $29, Change $11
Brad: Total Cost $58, Change $12
Dee: No, she needs $3 more.
