Let’s solve this step by step. We’ll go box by box (top-left, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-right), add up the coins and bills in each, then total everything.
---
Top-Left Box:
Coins:
- 1 loonie ($1) → $1.00
- 1 quarter (25 cents) → $0.25
- 1 dime (10 cents) → $0.10
- 1 toonie ($2) → $2.00
- 1 nickel (5 cents) → $0.05
Add them:
$1.00 + $0.25 = $1.25
$1.25 + $0.10 = $1.35
$1.35 + $2.00 = $3.35
$3.35 + $0.05 =
$3.40
→ Top-left total:
$3.40
---
Top-Right Box:
Bills:
- 1 five-dollar bill → $5.00
Coins:
- 1 loonie ($1) → $1.00
- 1 toonie ($2) → $2.00
- 2 dimes (10 cents each) → $0.20
- 1 nickel (5 cents) → $0.05
Add coins first:
$1.00 + $2.00 = $3.00
$3.00 + $0.20 = $3.20
$3.20 + $0.05 = $3.25
Now add bill:
$5.00 + $3.25 =
$8.25
→ Top-right total:
$8.25
---
Bottom-Left Box:
Bills:
- $10 bill → $10.00
- $20 bill → $20.00
- $50 bill → $50.00
Total bills:
$10 + $20 = $30; $30 + $50 =
$80.00
Coins:
- 1 quarter (25 cents) → $0.25
- 1 toonie ($2) → $2.00
Total coins:
$0.25 + $2.00 =
$2.25
Grand total for box:
$80.00 + $2.25 =
$82.25
→ Bottom-left total:
$82.25
---
Bottom-Right Box:
Bills:
- $100 bill → $100.00
Coins:
- 1 toonie ($2) → $2.00
- 2 quarters (25 cents each) → $0.50
- 1 nickel (5 cents) → $0.05
Total coins:
$2.00 + $0.50 = $2.50; $2.50 + $0.05 =
$2.55
Grand total for box:
$100.00 + $2.55 =
$102.55
→ Bottom-right total:
$102.55
---
Now add all four boxes together:
Top-left: $3.40
Top-right: $8.25
Bottom-left: $82.25
Bottom-right: $102.55
Step-by-step addition:
Start with $3.40 + $8.25 =
$11.65
Then $11.65 + $82.25 =
$93.90
Then $93.90 + $102.55 =
$196.45
✔ Double-check:
$3.40
+ $8.25
= $11.65
$11.65
+ $82.25
= $93.90
$93.90
+ $102.55
= $196.45 ← correct

Final Answer:
196.45
