Group by denomination, then combine

Every collection is resolved before it is drawn. Count each printed item once, record denomination subtotals and combine them using exact cents.

Learning objective

What this activity builds

Find each banknote-denomination subtotal and combine the subtotals into an exact Australian dollar amount.

Worked example

What is the value of two $20 banknotes and one $5 banknote?

AUD $45.00.

Two twenties make 40 dollars. One five makes the total 45 dollars.

Teaching notes

Make the practice count

Use the large printed denomination rather than treating colour as the value.
Keep the number of pieces separate from their combined dollar value.
Introduce larger denominations after repeated-value addition is secure.
