Count the amount of money
shown.
In this question, we’ve been shown
four different notes. We have to work out the value of
each note and then add them together to find the total amount of money shown. Our first note is worth 50 pounds,
so we could count forward 50 from zero on our number line. So far, we’ve got 50 pounds. Our next note is worth 20 pounds,
so we need to count forward 20 from 50 on our number line. 50 add 20 is 70. Our next note is worth 10 pounds,
so we need to count forward 10 more from 70: 70, 80. The last of our notes is worth five
pounds. Five more than 80 is 85. The total amount of money shown is
85 pounds.
