In this question, we’re shown three
different coins. We have to add them together to
find the total number of piastres. We could use a number line to
help. And we’re counting in piastres. We know this one-pound coin is
worth 100 piastres. Our next coin is worth 50
piastres. So we need to start at 100 on our
number line and count forward 50 more. 100 plus 50 is 150 piastres. Now we just need to add our final
coin which is worth 25 piastres. 150 plus 25 equals 175
piastres. One pound plus 50 piastres plus 25
piastres equals 175 piastres.
