Money problems

How to calculate change quickly?

Sam buys 3 lollipops at 39 each. What change does he get if he pays with a £2 coin?

working out

39p x 3 = 87p

Count onwards from 87p to £2 that is 200p

87p + 3p = 90p
90p + 10 = 100p
100p + 100p = 200p

In total, we have added 3p + 10p + 100p = 113p = £1.13

Now try these questions:

1.Sam buys a sandwich for £2.53 and drink for 37p. What change will he get if he pays with a £5 note?

2. Anna buys a book for £4.59 and a pen for £2.19. What change will he get if she pays with £10?

3. Sam buys a video game for £13.99 and a ball for £5.24. What change will he get if he pays with £20?

4. Sam buys a cup cake for £3.25 and ice cream for £2.25. What change will he get if he pays with £10?

5. Anna buys a bag for £11.75 and a teddy for £3.50. What change will she get if he pays with £20?

Multiplication

Mental Multiplication:
Example:  83 x 30

Step 1: 83 x 3 = 249, so 83 x 3 = 2490

Now try these:

1.  49 x 50

2. 152 x 30

3. 462 x 40

4. 562 x 30

5. 98 x 20


Example: 34 x 12

Step 1: keep 34 as it is and partition 12 into 10 and 2.

Step 2: 34 x 10 = 340
            34 x 2    =  68

Step 3:  Add 340 and 68. Answer is 408

Now try these:

1. 78 x 13

2. 35 x 14

3. 48 x 16

4. 94 x 14

5. 84 x 22

6. 49 x 23

7. 76 x 31

8. 71 x 19

9. 72 x 22

10. 63 x 12

Example:

156 x 3

Step 1. Partition 156 into 100, 50 and 6

Step 2. Multiply: 100 x 3 = 300
                              50 x 3 = 150
                                6 x 3 =    18
Step 3: Add them: 300 + 150 + 18 = 468

Now try these:

1. 461 x 7           6. 234 x 5

2. 528 x 4           7. 456 x 3

3. 432 x 6           8. 782 x 2

4. 327 x 8

5. 148 x 9
