Math Problem Statement

Look at Grant’s coins. Count and calculate the total value of these coins.

Solution

Let's go through each question in the worksheet.

Problem 1

Identify the value of each coin in the sequence:

  • From left to right, the coins are a dime (10¢), another dime (10¢), a quarter (25¢), a nickel (5¢), a penny (1¢), and another penny (1¢).

The sequence of values should be filled as: 10¢, 10¢, 25¢, 5¢, 1¢, 1¢

Problem 2

The problem asks to add the values of the coins.

  • Add the tens: 10 + 10 = 20
  • Add the remaining: 5 + 5 + 5 = 15
  • Add the pennies: 1 + 1 = 2

So, the expression should be: 20+15+2=37¢20 + 15 + 2 = 37 \text{¢}

Problem 3

This question asks for the total amount of cents Grant has.

  • The total from Problem 2 is 37¢.

So, Grant has 37¢.

Would you like more details on these solutions, or have any questions? Here are some related questions for further practice:

  1. If Grant had another quarter, how much would he have?
  2. What is the total value if Grant loses one of the pennies?
  3. How would the total change if one dime is replaced with a nickel?
  4. How many dimes would equal the total amount Grant has?
  5. How much more does Grant need to make 50¢?

Tip: When adding coins, group similar values first for easier calculations.
