Practical Applications

Math in Shopping and Money

Using Math to Shop and Manage Money

Shopping is a fun way to use math! We count coins, add up prices, and figure out how much change we should get.

Counting Coins and Bills

  • Add up quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies to find out how much you have.
  • Use dollars and cents to buy things.

Making Smart Choices

Knowing how to add and subtract helps you decide what you can buy and how much money you have left.

Real-Life Example

If you want to buy a toy, check if you have enough money before you reach the checkout.

Examples

  • You have $2 and want to buy a snack for $1.50. You count your coins and see you have enough!

  • If a book costs $7 and you pay with a $10 bill, subtract to find you get $3 change.
