Calculating change from 20p… WITH SUPPORT!
Every question includes coins as a scaffold — helping to make calculating change much easier!

This document includes eight worksheets on calculating change when spending 20p.

Four sheets focus on multiples of five (for easier calculations).

e.g. an easier question could include paying 15p with 10p, 5p, 2p, 2p and 1p for support.

Four sheets focus on all numbers (more difficult).

e.g. a harder question could include paying 17p with 10p, 5p, 2p, 2p and 1p for support.

In each question, you are given an item with a price tag to ‘buy’.

Within each calculation, the task is to calculate the change when paying for the item with 20p.

There are 5 calculations per page, and each question includes sections with 20p worth of different coins to support the subtraction.

A great resource for helping children understand money, purchasing, and calculating change!
