This is a dollar.

And this is a dollar, too.

To gure this out, rst count from 66 to 70. Because you are counting by 1s, circle a penny for each number.

Now that you are at 70, counting by 1s to 100 would mean there are a lot of pennies for change. You can do that, but most people like to get their change with a small number of coins.

The example on this page shows how to give Maria her change of 34 cents with 7 coins — 4 pennies and 3 dimes. How could you give her change with only 6 coins? Circle the coins in green.

Providing the rest of the change in dimes would mean counting by 10s. With the 4 pennies, you are at 70, so with the next dime, you would be at 80, then 90, then 100. Circle the 3 dimes to show the change you counted to get to $1.00.

Next Maria is going to buy a pencil that costs 58¢. She has a $1.00 bill. How much change will she get? Circle the coins that show the change she will get in red. Now try it on your own!
