Free Money Math Quiz for Grade 3

This money math quiz mixes addition, subtraction, and change-making problems framed as everyday purchases. By third grade, students should be able to make change from a $5 or $10 bill, total up two prices, and reason about whether they have enough money. Watch the dollar-and-cent format closely — students who write '$3.50' as '$3.5' are revealing a real misunderstanding about decimal place value that's worth fixing immediately. Real coins on the kitchen table are still the best teaching tool for this age.
