Let's solve the
"Counting Coins" worksheet step by step.
We are given four rows of U.S. coins, and we need to count the total value of each row by adding up the values of the coins shown. The coins include:
-
Penny (1¢) – copper-colored, Lincoln’s head
-
Nickel (5¢) – silver, larger than a penny, Jefferson’s head
-
Dime (10¢) – small silver coin, Franklin Roosevelt’s head
-
Quarter (25¢) – larger silver coin, George Washington’s head
We’ll go through each row and calculate the total.

🔹 Row 1:
Coins:
- Quarter (25¢)
- Quarter (25¢)
- Dime (10¢)
- Nickel (5¢)
- Penny (1¢)
- Penny (1¢)
Add them:
- 25 + 25 = 50
- 50 + 10 = 60
- 60 + 5 = 65
- 65 + 1 = 66
- 66 + 1 =

Add them:
- 25 + 10 = 35
- 35 + 10 = 45
- 45 + 5 = 50
- 50 + 5 = 55
- 55 + 1 = 56
