Group by denomination, then combine

Count each printed item once, record denomination subtotals, then combine cents and rand as an exact total.

Learning objective

What this activity builds

Combine repeated banknote values as an exact ZAR amount.

Worked example

How should I count a collection?

Group equal denominations, find each subtotal, then combine them.

The answer key keeps denomination subtotals separate so an adult can check each step.

Teaching notes

Make the practice count

  • Begin with a smaller set of familiar denominations.
  • Read the large printed value rather than relying on colour or size.
