About these worksheets
Once coin-counting is comfortable, bills join the party and the answer changes costume: 135 cents becomes $1.35. That switch — cents notation to dollar notation — is the actual lesson here, and it’s the child’s first meaningful decimal point. Each row mixes $1, $5 and $10 bills with a handful of coins; count the bills first, then the coins, then write the total the grown-up way.

Frequently asked questions
How do you write cents in dollar notation?
Two digits after the point, always: one dollar and five cents is $1.05, not $1.5. The zero is the classic slip.
What bills appear?
Ones, fives and tens as simple labeled bills, one to three per row, plus two to four coins.
Is there an answer key?
Yes — every total written in correct dollar notation, in blue.
