Boutique - Making Change |
|
At the Boutique shop the student plays the role of a store clerk who sells clothes. The main task is to handle the exchange of money and give correct change. In this example, the student is given $5.00 for an item that costs $4.22. The right change is 78¢. Assuming you have 9 of each coin (quarters, dimes, nickels and pennies) in your register, what are the different ways you could make the necessary change? |
