How the Activity Works:
Students refer to the menu to complete a range of money-related questions. They add the cost of selected items and determine the total amount. They then calculate the correct change when given a specific payment amount. Example scenarios include: Brendan orders an egg muffin and a tea—how much does his order cost? and Neil orders two puddings and a tea, paying with a $50 note—how much change should he receive? This activity reinforces financial literacy and numeracy skills in a practical and engaging way.
