This worksheet introduces students to the idea that there are different currencies used around the world. Students will calculate change using different currencies, just as they would using amounts in Australian dollars. This worksheet is a part of a larger unit, designed to consolidate students’ abilities in counting money and making change.
Recognise the relationships between dollars and cents and represent money values in different ways
Use mathematical modelling to solve practical problems involving additive and multiplicative situations including financial contexts; formulate the problems using number sentences and choose efficient calculation strategies, using digital tools where appropriate; interpret and communicate solutions in terms of the situation
Represent money values in multiple ways and count the change required for simple transactions to the nearest five cents
Solve problems involving purchases and the calculation of change to the nearest five cents with and without digital technologies
Solve problems involving purchases and the calculation of change to the nearest 5 cents with and without digital tools
Represent money values in multiple ways and count the change required for simple transactions to the nearest five cents
Develop efficient mental and written strategies and use appropriate digital technologies for multiplication and for division where there is no remainder
