Maths Quiz - Year 2 Money - Giving Change (Answers)
This quiz addresses the requirements of the National Curriculum KS1 Maths and Numeracy for children aged 6 and 7 in year 2. Specifically this quiz is aimed at the section dealing with solving simple problems in a practical context involving addition and subtraction of money of the same unit, including giving change.
Once children become familiar with adding amounts of money together to find a total, the next natural step is to work out how much change to give by either subtracting the total from the amount paid, or counting up to find the difference. This begins with one-step problems, such as buying a toy for 18p and paying with a 20 pence piece, but will gradually move on to two-step problems such as buying 3 oranges costing 15p each and paying with 50p.
This quiz will help your child to understand money in a practical context and how much change should be given.

£1 is the same as 100p. 100p - 50p = 50p
|
50p - 25p leaves 25p. You could have counted up in 5s from 25 to 50 to find the difference

You must first find the total spent before counting on to £1 to work out the change
|
4 x 15 = 60. The difference between 60 and 100 is the amount of change you should receive

The difference between 165 and 200 is 35
|
First you must work out 5 x 12, which is 60

Finding the total spent and then counting up to £2 will give the answer
|
£1.99 is almost £2 but shops price things like this because they sound cheaper

Sometimes it might help to draw a blank number line
|
Put the total at one end of an empty number line, and the amount paid at the other end to find the change
