Here are the step-by-step solutions for each money word problem.
1. Anna's Money
*
2 quarters: $0.25 + 0.25 = 0.50$
*
4 nickels: $0.05 \times 4 = 0.20$
*
1 penny: $0.01$
*
Total: $0.50 + 0.20 + 0.01 = \mathbf{0.71}$
2. Meredith's Earnings
*
4 quarters: $0.25 \times 4 = 1.00$
*
2 dimes: $0.10 \times 2 = 0.20$
*
2 nickels: $0.05 \times 2 = 0.10$
*
5 pennies: $0.01 \times 5 = 0.05$
*
Total: $1.00 + 0.20 + 0.10 + 0.05 = \mathbf{1.35}$
3. Mario's Winnings
*
1 dollar: $1.00$
*
1 half-dollar: $0.50$
*
3 dimes: $0.10 \times 3 = 0.30$
*
5 nickels: $0.05 \times 5 = 0.25$
*
Total: $1.00 + 0.50 + 0.30 + 0.25 = \mathbf{2.05}$
4. Luis's Brother's Earnings
*
3 dimes: $0.10 \times 3 = 0.30$
*
7 nickels: $0.05 \times 7 = 0.35$
*
4 pennies: $0.01 \times 4 = 0.04$
*
Total: $0.30 + 0.35 + 0.04 = \mathbf{0.69}$
5. Tasha's Findings
*
1 half-dollar: $0.50$
*
2 quarters: $0.25 \times 2 = 0.50$
*
3 nickels: $0.05 \times 3 = 0.15$
*
Total: $0.50 + 0.50 + 0.15 = \mathbf{1.15}$
6. Jared's Total Money
*
Start: $1.00$ (dollar) + $0.10$ (dime) = $1.10$
*
Add friend's gift: $0.10$ (dime) + $0.10$ (nickel) = $0.15$
* *Note: The text says "another dime and 2 nickels". Let me re-read carefully.*
* Correction: "another dime and 2 nickels".
* Friend gave: $0.10$ (dime) + $0.05 \times 2$ (nickels) = $0.10 + 0.10 = 0.20$.
*
New Total: $1.10$ (start) + $0.20$ (gift) = $\mathbf{1.30}$
7. (Partially Obscured)
* The text for question 7 is covered by the image of coins. I cannot solve this one accurately without seeing the full question. However, looking at the visible fragments, it seems to involve counting coins shown in the pile, but without the specific question text ("How much..."), I will skip providing a definitive answer for #7 to avoid guessing. *Wait, looking closer at crop 4 and 1, I can see "7." and then coin images. Usually, these worksheets ask you to count the coins pictured. Let's look at the coins visible in the green bin.*
* There are many coins. It is impossible to count them all accurately because they overlap and some are cut off.
* *Self-Correction:* Since I cannot see the full text or all coins clearly, I will provide answers for 1-6 and 8 which are fully legible. I will omit 7.
8. Gia's Remaining Money
*
Start: $2.50$
*
Lost: 3 quarters ($0.25 \times 3 = 0.75$) and 1 penny ($0.01$).
*
Total Lost: $0.75 + 0.01 = 0.76$
*
Calculation: $2.50 - 0.76$
* $2.50 - 0.50 = 2.00$
* $2.00 - 0.26 = 1.74$
*
Total: $\mathbf{1.74}$
Final Answer:
1. $0.71
2. $1.35
3. $2.05
4. $0.69
5. $1.15
6. $1.30
8. $1.74
