If you need some help to get started:● Grab a handful of real coins and look closely. Can you see the number?

If it is a silver coin we use cents (c). If it is a gold coin we use the word dollars ($)● When we write the symbols cents (c) it comes after the number. When we write the symbol

dollars ($) it comes before the number.● There are 100 cents in 1 dollar or 100c = $1.
