Using Math to Manage Money

Math skills help you handle money with confidence. Whether you’re saving for a new game or figuring out how to split the bill at lunch, number sense is essential.

Everyday Money Scenarios

  • Adding up totals when shopping
  • Calculating change
  • Figuring out discounts and sales

Why It Matters

Good money math keeps you from overspending and helps you make smart choices with your cash.

Examples

  • You buy a toy for $7.50 and pay with $10. How much change do you get? ($2.50)

  • A $20 shirt is on sale for 25% off. How much do you pay? (25% of $20 is $5, so you pay $15)
