To solve this worksheet, we need to calculate the total value of the money shown in the "Change I should get back" section for each row. The images show the same set of bills and coins in all three rows.
Step 1: Identify the money in one row.
Looking at the pictures, each row contains:
*
1 One-Dollar Bill: This is worth $1.00.
*
1 Quarter: This is worth 25 cents ($0.25).
*
1 Dime: This is worth 10 cents ($0.10).
*
1 Nickel: This is worth 5 cents ($0.05).
*
1 Penny: This is worth 1 cent ($0.01).
Step 2: Add up the coins first.
Let's add the value of the coins together:
* Quarter: 25¢
* Dime: + 10¢ = 35¢
* Nickel: + 5¢ = 40¢
* Penny: + 1¢ = 41¢
So, the coins are worth
$0.41.
Step 3: Add the dollar bill.
Now, add the value of the bill to the value of the coins:
* $1.00 (bill) + $0.41 (coins) =
$1.41
Since all three rows show the exact same money, the total change for each row is the same. You would write
1.41 in the "Total" box for each section.
Final Answer:
The total amount of change for each row is
$1.41.
