Ready to print

Start with a ready-made worksheet

Read the denomination of each pictured note. Count how many notes belong to each denomination, find those subtotals and write the collection’s total dollar value. These educational reference images represent selected U.S. designs, not every design in circulation.

Download the practice pages alone, or include a separate answer key or teacher model. Longer activities may use more than one page.

Learning objective

What this activity builds

Find the total value of a collection of banknotes by combining denomination subtotals.

Worked example

How much are 2 twenty-dollar bills, 1 five-dollar bill and 3 one-dollar bills worth?

$48.00.

Two twenties make 40 dollars. Adding 5 dollars and then 3 dollars gives 48 dollars. The decimal ending .00 records that there are no additional cents.

Teaching notes

Make the practice count

  • Begin with the default $1, $5, $10 and $20 notes; introduce other denominations after their values are familiar.
  • Ask the learner to locate the printed denomination rather than relying on a note’s color or portrait alone.
  • Have the learner show a subtotal beside each denomination before combining a larger collection. Grade readiness depends on the selected values and resulting total.
