Currencies and Notation

Common currencies: US Dollars ($), Pounds (£), Euros (€).
Always write money to two decimal places (e.g., £1.40, $5.00).
For large amounts, rounding to nearest pound/dollar may be appropriate.
Check the currency used in the question and match it in your answer.

Basic Operations with Money

Total or sum means add amounts.
Difference or increase/decrease involves subtraction.
Exchange rates require multiplication or division.
Read keywords carefully to decide the operation.

Calculating Total Cost

Multiply quantity by unit price to find cost of items.
Add all individual costs to get the total.
Example: 3 tins at $15.95 each = $47.85; add other items for total.
Always write down intermediate steps to avoid errors.

Calculating Change

Change = amount paid − total cost.
Subtract the total from the note/coin given.
Example: $10 − $6.80 = $3.20 change.
Ensure the answer is in the correct currency and decimal places.

Deals and Discounts

'Buy 3 get 1 free' or '4 for price of 3' reduce cost per item.
Calculate total cost after deal, then divide by number of people.
Example: 12 burgers, deal 4 for price of 3 → pay for 9 burgers.
Work out the price each person pays from the reduced total.

Profit and Percentage

Profit = selling price − cost price.
Percentage profit = (profit / cost) × 100%.
To find selling price with profit: cost × (1 + profit%).
Example: cost $1.50, 60% profit → selling price = $1.50 × 1.60 = $2.40.

Wages and Hourly Pay

Total pay = hours worked × hourly rate.
Overtime often paid at 1.5 times (time‑and‑a‑half) the usual rate.
Add regular pay and overtime pay for total earnings.
Example: 34 h at $8.25/h + 8 h at $12.375/h = $379.50.

Best Value Comparisons

Find unit cost (price per kg, per litre, etc.) to compare sizes.
The smallest unit cost gives the best value.
Show working: divide price by quantity for each option.
Example: 20L bag $10 → $0.50/L; 40L bag $18 → $0.45/L → 40L is better.

Rounding and Accuracy

Keep all decimal places during calculations; round only the final answer.
For money, round to two decimal places unless context says otherwise.
If a price is given to more than 2 d.p. (e.g., £1.579), use it fully in working.
Final answer: e.g., £119.455 → £119.46.

Common Question Types

Shopping bills: complete missing costs and find total.
Change from a note: subtract total from note value.
Deposit and instalments: subtract deposit, divide remainder by number of payments.
Percentage of tickets sold: (sold / total) × 100%.

## Money Calculations - Quick Revision ### Key Skills - **Total/Sum**: Add costs. - **Difference/Change**: Subtract. - **Multiply/Divide**: For unit prices, exchange rates, or splitting payments. - **Round to 2 decimal places** for dollars/pounds/euros (e.g., $1.40 not $1.4). Use given decimals in working, round only final answer. ### Common Question Types - **Shopping bills**: Multiply quantity by price, add items. - **Change from a note**: Subtract total from amount given. - **Equal payments**: Subtract deposit, divide remainder by number of payments. - **Best value**: Compare price per unit (e.g., per kg or per litre). - **Percentage of total**: (part / total) × 100. - **Profit**: Selling price = cost + (percentage profit × cost). - **Overtime pay**: Overtime rate = usual rate × 1.5 (or given multiplier). - **Deals**: e.g., "4 for price of 3" means pay for 3, get 4. - **Time & cost**: Count full days (part days count as full). - **Fuel cost**: litres needed = distance / km per litre; cost = litres × price per litre. ### Examples from Past Papers - **Car purchase**: $18160 - $6460 deposit = $11700; $11700 ÷ 24 = $487.50 per month. - **Café bill**: Tea $2.35 + Cake $4.45 = $6.80; change from $10: $10 - $6.80 = $3.20. - **Instrument total**: String $4716, Woodwind 15×$217=$3255, Brass 12×$221=$2652; total = $10623; 65% given, so need 35%: 0.35×$10623=$3718.05. - **Parking**: 17 Jul (Tue) 10:00 to 28 Jul (Sat) 17:00, part days charged as full days. Weekdays (Mon-Fri): 17-20 Jul and 23-27 Jul = 9 days. Weekend days (Sat-Sun): 21, 22 and 28 Jul = 3 days. Cost = 9x$14 + 3x$8 = $126+$24 = $150. - **Overtime**: Harriet works 34 hrs at $8.25 = $280.50; extra 8 hrs at 1.5×$8.25=$12.375 each = $99; total = $379.50. - **Fuel**: 320 km ÷ 10 km/L = 32 L; cost = 32 × £1.50 = £48. - **Best value**: Compare price per kg for different bag sizes. ### Key Terms

Deposit: An initial payment made when buying something, with the remainder paid later.
Monthly payment: Equal amounts paid each month to settle a debt.
Change: The amount returned after paying with more than the cost.
Total cost: The sum of all individual costs.
Percentage: A fraction out of 100, often used to express a portion of a total.
Profit: The amount gained from selling something, calculated as selling price minus cost price.
Overtime: Hours worked beyond normal hours, often paid at a higher rate (e.g., 1.5 times).
Best value: The option that gives the lowest cost per unit (e.g., per kg).
Exchange rate: The value of one currency in terms of another.
