Worksheet Overview

Remember that there are 100p in a pound.

So if we add 1p and £1 we get £1.01

 

Example

Add 253p to £10.

 

Answer

Working in pounds, we must work out £10.00 + £2.53

Remember when we add in money, we use decimals and must consider the place values for pounds and pence.

 

Adding with money

 

The answer must be written with a £ sign, so the answer is    £12.53

That all looks very easy, doesn't it?
