Primary 1 Mathematics Quiz - Money

Answer Key

Section A: Recognising Coins and Notes

1. 50 cents (or 50¢)
Marking: 1 mark for correct answer. Accept "50 cents", "50¢", or "fifty cents".

2. (B) 10-cent coin
Marking: 1 mark for circling or writing B.

3. $2 (or 2 dollars) *Marking: 1 mark for correct answer. Accept "$ 2", "2 dollars", or "two dollars".*

4. Correct matches:

🟡 Gold coin → 50 cents
⚪ Silver coin → 20 cents
🟤 Small bronze coin → 5 cents

Marking: 1 mark for all three correct. 0 marks if any are wrong.

5. 5 coins
Marking: 1 mark. Reasoning: 10¢ + 10¢ + 10¢ + 10¢ + 10¢ = 50¢. Common mistake: writing "10" instead of "5".

Section B: Counting Money

6. $1.50 (or 150¢) *Marking: 2 marks. 1 mark for correct addition (50 + 50 + 50 = 150), 1 mark for correct unit. Accept "$ 1.50" or "150 cents".*

7. $1.00 (or 100¢) *Working: 50¢ + 20¢ + 20¢ + 10¢ = 100¢ =$ 1.00*
Marking: 2 marks. 1 mark for correct addition steps, 1 mark for correct final answer with unit.

8. $1.00 (or 100¢) *Working: 20¢ + 20¢ + 20¢ + 20¢ + 20¢ = 100¢ =$ 1.00*
Marking: 2 marks. 1 mark for correct multiplication or repeated addition, 1 mark for correct answer.

9. $1.10 (or 110¢) *Working: 50¢ + 50¢ + 10¢ = 110¢ =$ 1.10*
Marking: 2 marks. 1 mark for correct working, 1 mark for correct final answer.

10. $1.40 (or 140¢) *Working: 50¢ + 50¢ + 20¢ + 10¢ + 10¢ = 140¢ =$ 1.40*
Marking: 2 marks. 1 mark for correct addition, 1 mark for correct final answer with unit.

Section C: Comparing Money

11. Both have the same amount ( $1.00 each). *Working: Siti: 50¢ + 50¢ = 100¢ =$ 1.00. Ali: 20¢ + 20¢ + 20¢ + 20¢ + 20¢ = 100¢ = $1.00.*
Marking: 2 marks. 1 mark for calculating each person's total correctly, 1 mark for correct comparison. Accept "same" or "equal". Common mistake: thinking more coins means more money.

12. 50¢, 80¢, $1.20,$ 2.00
Working: Convert all to cents if needed: 50¢, 80¢, 120¢, 200¢.
Marking: 2 marks. 1 mark for correct order, 1 mark for correct units. All four must be in correct order for full marks.

13. Less than
Working: 30¢ < 50¢
Marking: 2 marks. Accept "less than", "smaller than", or "<".

14. The pencil costs less. It costs 15¢ less.
Working: 60¢ − 45¢ = 15¢
Marking: 2 marks. 1 mark for identifying the pencil, 1 mark for correct difference of 15¢.

15. Group A = 70¢, Group B = 60¢. Group A has more money.
Working: Group A: 50¢ + 20¢ = 70¢. Group B: 20¢ + 20¢ + 20¢ = 60¢. 70¢ > 60¢.
Marking: 2 marks. 1 mark for correct totals, 1 mark for correct comparison.

Section D: Using Money

16. Yes, she has enough.
Working: 20¢ + 10¢ + 10¢ = 40¢. 40¢ > 30¢, so she has enough.
Marking: 2 marks. 1 mark for correct total (40¢), 1 mark for correct conclusion ("yes" or "enough").

17. 30¢
Working: 80¢ − 50¢ = 30¢
Marking: 2 marks. 1 mark for correct subtraction, 1 mark for correct answer with unit.

18. (A) 🟡 + 🟡 (50¢ + 50¢)
Working: 50¢ + 50¢ = 100¢ = $1.00. Option B = 90¢, Option C = 60¢, Option D = 90¢.
Marking: 2 marks. 1 mark for selecting A, 1 mark for showing working or reasoning.

19. She spends $1.10 and has 40¢ left. *Working: Total spent: 70¢ + 40¢ = 110¢ =$ 1.10. Money left: $1.50 −$ 1.10 = 40¢.*
Marking: 2 marks. 1 mark for correct total spent, 1 mark for correct amount left.

20.
(a) 70¢
Working: 50¢ + 20¢ = 70¢

(b) Yes, he has enough.
Working: 70¢ > 60¢, so he has enough to buy the keychain.

Marking: 2 marks total. 1 mark for correct answer to (a), 1 mark for correct answer to (b) with reasoning. Common mistake in (b): saying "no" because the numbers look close — encourage students to compare the actual values.

Summary of Marks

Section	Questions	Marks per Question	Section Total
A	1–5	1	5
B	6–10	2	10
C	11–15	2	10
D	16–20	2	10
Total	20 questions		30 marks

Notes for Marking

Accept answers in cents (¢) or dollars ($) where appropriate, as long as the unit is clearly stated.
For questions requiring working, award process marks even if the final answer is incorrect, provided the method is correct.
Common errors to watch for:
- Confusing the number of coins with the value of coins (e.g., "5 coins" vs "5 cents").
- Not converting between cents and dollars correctly (100¢ = $1.00).
- Subtraction errors in change problems — encourage students to check by adding the change back to the cost.
