Funny how I am learning all of this before I work as my first day as a cash register and see that I am not the only one having problems counting money. Thank you for this video it really helps and I I glad others like me are also helped.
I hope the video helps you enjoy your job.
@@FrankMLoSchiavo 😄Thank you, I appreciate it.
yeah same happen to me
Nope lol your not I do to bra !
Fr 😂😭
The thing is I know how to count but I get overwhelmed and the anxiety beats me😂 when I got my first job as a host at a restaurant, I accidentally gave a customer the wrong change. I instead gave him the total bc I read the receipt wrong & he proceeded to call me dumb & say it was embarrassing how I didnt know how to count and well it was my first job ever and first day too. Moral of the story don’t call yourself dumb because you’re not & don’t let rude customers bring you down just pay close attention next time & remember everyone makes mistakes.
That's a great message to people who struggle making change with money. It's not necessarily easy to learn how to make change, but with time and practice, you can indeed learn to do it. And as you mentioned, nobody is dumb for making a few mistakes along the way. Thanks for your post :)
I’m 26 years old and I just learn about this now😕 I always felt so dumb but definitely the knowledge make ourselves free and I can finally think about the changes with my own mind without use phone, this will change my life forever. Thank you so much for sharing 👏👏
That's great! I'm so glad the video helped you. Thanks for sharing your thoughts :)
Same here
I 18 and I strugglen with math but we all gotta just keep on moving forward and tried are best and just learn and study
@@christopherfeliciano9826 you said it buddy 👍☺️
Thank you so much for this video 😭 my school never taught me this so I’m really glad I found this video now I can give back change with confidence & I won’t get yelled at by a stranger or go through embarrassment 🗿
I'm glad it helped you!
It's sad that we were never taught practical life skills such as this in school. This is an awesome way to teach others thank you!!!
I agree, and thank you!
You're welcome anytime
I never really learned how to give people change because in elementary they never really explained it well enough but now that I'm older it really makes me realize how easy it was.
Yeah, I guess it's easy for most people, although for some people, it requires lots of practice. I've noticed that lots of people in the real world make mistakes when they don't rely on what the cash register tells them.
Easier to start counting back change with the bill, up to the amount given to you by the customer as you’re pulling out the change from the register. So, bill = 27 cents. Customer gives you $1.00. Then: 28, 29, 30, 40, 50, 75, $1.00. 3 pennies, 2 dimes, 2 quarters.
I always count with my fingers and I think it slows me down; whenever I try to do the math in my head I can’t see ANYTHING! I know how to count money but I don’t know why I can’t do it without using my fingers lol.
Some people have trouble with mental imagery, particularly with abstract subjects like math. I don't think there's anything wrong with using fingers, but the public expects people to rely less on fingers as they get older.
This is easy and hard at the same time, but it shouldn’t be hard cause I’m way too old for this to be hard. But thank you, this actually helped me a lot since I have to have a job at the age of 16 and I’m 15 at the moment and I really need to learn how to count money faster. So I’m definitely doing this every day. Don’t judge me I know I’m dumb 😭
Keep practicing. You'll get good at it pretty quickly.
Chill, I'm 18 and I need to learn this too haha
@@cristiansalascruz9700 LMFAOO I’m bout to be 16 next month help lol 😭
@@cristiansalascruz9700 same 😭
why y'all have to get a job at age 16?
When you learn more about money counting on RUclips than in school then you school freaking sucks at education in America lol.
It's crazy that they don't teach this in school and that's only cause they more worried about mx+b bull crap
Yeah, it would be nice if primary schools spent more time on basic math...the math we use daily.
I'll be working as a server at a restaurant, I need to learn this. The problem is that I'm so slow, if I do too much thinking my head starts hurting.
I can understand that. Our society values quick thinking, but even more important than that is thinking correctly, even if it takes a bit more time. You can always buy yourself more time by saying something like, "Let me double check that to make sure I'm correct." And, don't be afraid to pull out a calculator. It's wise to use a tool that will always be correct.
Money is the hardest part of my life honestly
Making money or making change? If you practice making change, it will get easier, less stressful. I can't help when it comes to making money, lol.
@@FrankMLoSchiavo I been watching RUclips videos about it
As a math teacher of 30 years, I love this video. It’s explained using the best method, clearly, and with lots of repetition. Excellent video that I’m glad to use in my classes.
Thx! That means a lot to me :)
I can’t rap my head around the 2nd part of the process 😭 like I understand everything else besides that *help*
I hear ya, but the second part of the process is nearly identical to the first. That's probably good news. Think about the first example from the video...I paid $1.00 for a bill that's 73 cents. For the first step, I rounded up to 80 cents because it's easier for me to see in my head that there's a 20 cent difference between $1.00 and 80 cents. The second step is nearly the same, but now I need to see how big the difference is between 73 cents and 80 cents. So, if you use the "round up" strategy I used, the second step involves finding the difference between the amount you owed (73 cents) and the amount you rounded to (80 cents). Then, to find the final answer, add 20 cents and 7 cents to find you are owed 27 cents overall. I know this isn't easy peasy, but with practice you can improve and become competent, so keep at it! I hope this helps.
I’m 16 and I’m planning on working on a part time job that ,involves being at the cash register, right now. My maths is decent because I passed but my mental maths is not that great. This video helped out a lot so I’m glad I watched this.
I'm glad the video helped. I hope you enjoy your new job!
Omg thank you so so much!! I got my second job as a cashier again and I’m so anxious about the accuracy of my money handling skills. I made a mistake by missing .80 cents of change to a customer on my second day. At the end of the shift, it didn’t add up and I told them about it. They said it was alright, but gave me a small warning to avoid it as much as possible. Now I’m just trying my very best to improve on all aspects of my job so I can ease out this anxiety of going to work. I grew up where people just buy and do things for me so I never get the chance to develop any money skills. So thank you so so much from the bottom of my heart 💕!
You're welcome! BTW, we all make mistakes, lol, but it's great that you're so serious about making personal improvements. Thanks so much for reaching out :)
You are amazing ! Finally someone has explained to me something I've been too ashamed to talk about. I have always struggled with this and slipped through the gaps. Thanks so so much !
Thanks for the kind words, Gregory. I'm glad the video helped you!
Thank you so much for this! I've hesitated to be a cashier because I suck with change, but I've started watching your videos and it's so helpful!
I'm so glad you find them helpful! Thx for letting me know :)
I get it...I actually understood maths for the first time in my life...
I'm glad the video helped! Please consider sharing it with others :)
Why was this not taught this when I was going to school? In fact I was never ever taught how to make change.
Unfortunately, I see this question all the time, and I have no good answer.
@@FrankMLoSchiavo This stuff is insanely easy, but my school never really taught me how to do this. Are schools becoming more and more lazy with kids?
@@Imrightandyourewrong I don't think schools/teachers are lazy. One factor is that they have less freedom to teach what they want, due to standardized state curricula and testing. That said, dealing with money should be covered in more depth, for obvious reasons.
Schools are meant to keep you smart enough to keep the economy going but ignorant enough to never threaten the establishment.
This video helped alot
Glad to hear it!
Needed because I always avoid cashiering jobs
I hope the video helps you develop those skills.
Mate, your such a legend. It's people like you that make a difference. Keep up what your doing because it just works!!!
Thanks for the kind words! They motivate me to create more content.
@@FrankMLoSchiavo this video has really helped me as a cashier and how i see money.
@@TimXMan1000 So glad to hear that! Thx!
Very helful, thanks. Who's watching in 2022☺
You're welcome! Good question...who's watching? I find that most comments come from people starting new jobs as cashiers. Thanks for posting a comment :)
it sucks coz i can do it now in my room no problem, but whenever i'm out there i stuff up from the pressure no matter how much i practice so i just have to use the computer... :( and i find it annoying how customers give u their money but then while i'm putting it in the computer, they give like 20cents and that just stuffs up everything so i have to get the calculator and do it which makes me look so stupid because the computer doesn't let me backtrack. sometimes, the customers even help me !! ARgH
I hear ya, but it sounds like you're doing everything right. If you're practicing, you'll almost certainly get better over time, even if your progress is slow. And if you're relying on a calculator to make sure you're giving correct change in confusing situations, then you're definitely doing what's smart! It sounds like you're a good employee who cares about getting transactions right. Nobody reasonable ever said you need to do it all in your head. Thanks for writing!
@@FrankMLoSchiavo I live in the hood and I’m scared that I will get shot if I give back the wrong change
@@opptwin8945 I guess that's strong motivation to get it right :)
What I need help with is when people pay things like 20.22 and the Total is like 12.77 or whatever else for an example Because people sometimes just give you random change and I don’t know how to figure it out then
I have a video for that. It's called Making Change with Odd Amounts of Money. Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/j11P1pPKFEs/видео.html
Thank you so much was struggling trying to getting it right
My pleasure. I hope it helped :)
My head hurts.
Honestly, making change in your head isn't for everyone. The good news is that you don't need to as long as you know how to calculate it some other way, such as with a cash register or a calculator.
Thank you!
My pleasure!
at times my brain couldn't keep up but then i understood it. thanks for explaining it
You're welcome! You know, at times my brain can't keep up, either. That's okay. We're not machines. Sometimes we need to take a few extra moments to think, and the good news is that most of the time, other people don't make a big deal about it :)
Thank you so much, you deserve soo much likes for this, it was very helpful
Thank you! Please share the video with others :)
Also you can just subtract 100 from 38- So your subtracting now, For this example is easy as well by using $1.00 and $ 0.38. By subtracting 38 from 100, you will also get "62", I checked it on my calculator, and I was right!!! AS I WAS WATCHING THIS, I JUST FIGURED OUT MY OWN METHOD, THANK YOU LORD!!🎉🎉😅😊 I hope this can help as well!!❤ This video was so helpful, It just unlocked something that will definitely help me.🙏🏽
I'm glad the video helped and that you're thinking deep thoughts about math :)
Im a cashier in a restaurant and im super struggling with giving coins n shit im so lost its super hard i dont get it atleast im not only one struggling i guess
You're definitely not the only one struggling. But keep practicing. If you do, it will get easier over time.
@@FrankMLoSchiavo tbh it helped I kinda have gotten better at it
I’m 56 and I have dyscalculia, math has been a problem all my life, it’s really frustrating.
I can understand that. I meet lots of students who are frustrated by math. The good news is that many tools exist to make math easier for us. There's really no need to do math in your head.
When I get nervous and worry about my math skills, I pull out a calculator (or my phone) and make a little joke about my inability to do simple math. It always works out fine :)
Practice is amazing
I work at sonic as a carhop and this really helped me thank
You're welcome! Please share the video with others :)
i just started working at sonic as a car hop too and i’m horrible at counting change back 😭
@@hailievinson6777 Practice makes perfect. You'll get good at it if you make it a priority, which is important, because you don't want to make any mistakes with customers. It just takes a bunch of practice. I hope you enjoy your new job!
I really appreciate this video. I had started working at a market( this is my first job ) and I was working the cash register and it was soo difficult to understand, and I had to get help so many times because I just couldn’t do it. I hope I can learn quickly to count and subtract change 😆( again lol )
It can be intimidating to run a cash register. But have faith. You'll almost certainly get the hang of it quickly, particularly if you're spending time thinking about it and spending time watching videos that will help. Good luck. Congrats on your first job!
I find this method extremely easy.
However, I am sure if I am at a store I would black out !
I won't be able to process numbers easily I am very slow :)
I'm relatively slow, as well, but practice has helped speed my mental processing.
@@FrankMLoSchiavo ♥️
Thank you so so much, I'm gonna get my first job soon and this method might've just saved my life. I'm gonna practice a lot before I apply. Thx again!
Good luck with your first job. I hope you enjoy it!
I was never really good with these darn decimal problems in school.
How you get 4.21 im lost... shouldn't the 2 be 3?
The correct change is $4.21. That amount includes 21 cents and not 31 cents because as we're moving up from 79 cents to the next dollar, there's a gap of 21 cents. You can use a calculator to prove this to yourself...$1.00 - $0.79 = $0.21, or 21 cents. In my head, I'd round that 79 cents up 1 cent to 80 cents. Then it's easy to see that there's 20 cents between 80 cents and the next dollar. Because we rounded up 1 cent, we need to add that 1 cent to the 20 cents we just discussed, and now we know the coin portion of the change is 21 cents. I hope this helps :)
Sir, thank you. I salute. Way back years ago, i used to be so good like so good in calculations. But everything changed in my life later period such that calculations was one thing i totally forgot it became a nightmare total complex thing and i fear to do calculations in front of people because i know I'm slow and i get confused in fear.
Recently i used to do money calculations in mind still not good or perfect but after watching this video i feel relieved
I'm glad the video helped you. Practice is important. The more you work with numbers, the more comfortable you'll feel. Thanks for posting :)
Thank you so much sir!
My pleasure. Please share the video with your friends. Thx.
I have a little feedback, I’m on the autism spectrum and I find it easier just to separate the 10’s and 1’s place just so we don’t get confused. Maybe show evidence by showing that you have rounded by drawing it out? Other than that you did a great job representing that!
Thanks for the feedback :)

Amazing topics
Thanks! I'd love to create some addition videos about making change, but I just can't find the time right now.
Thank you so much for teaching me this! Essentially, the reason why I got here is because as a cashier myself, there were a couple of instances that customers give me change way last minute. The moment I put in the cash to the p.o. box, it tells me how much I give back. I give the amount back but then someone gives me change back, usually under a $1. It throws me off so much, then I feel bad for being stupid and slow. 😅 Is there any tips you think can help, or should I keep following up with these types of videos?
It's so rude for customers to make changes once you've entered their payment into your register, but that doesn't seem to stop them, lol. I think you're on the right track. Keep watching videos like this, and keep practicing. Whenever I pay for something, I always try to calculate the change before the cashier gives it to me. That's good practice! You can find lots of ways to practice. I also think it's smart to have a calculator with you at work. That way, if you get confused, you can simply use the calculator. There's no shame in ensuring you're giving the correct change. Thanks for posting!
@@FrankMLoSchiavo Thank you very much for your help! And I will definitely have a calculator on the side.
This method is a bit different from other videos when they count up with the change until it's a dollar and then count up with bills.
Different is good, right? It's nice to have several options. The good thing about math is that there are many ways to look at it, and still get the right answer. I hope you found the video helpful :)
@@FrankMLoSchiavo
Yes thank you the video was helpful. There’s always different ways to do everything
Thanks love u sir
You're welcome!
Great method! Thank you!
I like this!
Thx!
NICE!!
Thx! Glad you found it helpful :)
i can do it whan i physically see the numbers infront of me but when i look away i forget the numbers
That's common. It's much more difficult to do math from memory. But you can improve with practice. In situations where it's not easy to do the math in your head, just use a calculator. Most people carry phones, and most phones have good calculators installed. There's no shame in pulling out a calculator to make sure a calculation is correct. I'm pretty good at making change in my head when numbers are less than 100, but after that, I rely on a calculator.
you saved my life!!!!
I'm so glad, because the world is better off with you in it!
Wow, this really works!
I'm so glad to hear that :)
i feel so stupid because i always sucked at math so here i am
Welcome! You're exactly the type of person I create videos for. You're not stupid, but you do need to learn some strategies, and you need to practice. This stuff doesn't come easy to everyone. That's okay. I hope my videos help :)
Y’all might think I’m crazy but how did u get from 40 cents to 60cents?
In the example where I owed 38 cents and paid $1.00, I rounded 38 cents up to 40 cents because it is easier to subtract 40 cents from $1.00. In that case, $1.00 minus 40 cents is 60 cents. So, I know I should get back at least 60 cents. Then I need to remember that I rounded 38 cents up 2 cents to 40 cents. I need to get those 2 cents back in change, as well. So, overall, I am owed 60 cents plus 2 cents which is 62 cents. Using a calculator you can verify that $1.00 - $0.38 = $0.62, which is 62 cents. I hope this helps!
@@FrankMLoSchiavo Ohhhhhhhhhh ok thank you
@@daniyascottland4546 My pleasure! Thanks for posting a question :)
@@FrankMLoSchiavo I’m very sorry but I’m still confused.. 🥴😩😔
@@mayjay26.xo_6 No need to be sorry. It's not easy to make change in your head. But try watching the video again, and try practicing with some simple numbers.
One question since I wasn't taught really good in making change and giving the right chance and schools I went never taught me the valuable lessons and skills to have to go into the world and be an independent adult to know how to pay for groceries, bills, or other things.
My question is if I shop for a shirt and the price is $16.09 or a hoodie costs $54.99, how do I pay the amount in cash correctly and give in change?
If you want to pay $16.09 in bills/change, you'd need to have the right bills/change in your pocket, which isn't always the case. So, for example, you might pay with the following: a $10 bill, a $5 bill, a $1 bill, a nickel, and 4 pennies. That would total $16.09 exactly.
@@FrankMLoSchiavo okay but someone told me I can give a $20 bill for it but why is that fair or accurate to give a $20 bill for the shirt that costs $16.09
@@jasonmitchell5170 It's fair because you'd receive change in return, and in the end, you'd pay only $16.09.
yall im here because i have hard time rounding up change when customers ask to roundup for donations 😭😭 DONT COME AT ME IM SLOW 😭🤚🏻
Don't be afraid to use a calculator to check your math.
Same
Is there any mobile application in PlayStation for this problem?
Great question, but unfortunately I don't know. If you find one, please post the info here. Thx!
Also, what is the best way to make it easier to pay for something to be on your way and you don't have to take all day ... say if a shirt is $15 and I can give $20, why would I give them a $20 bill?
Is it that I round it up like this going up
Like 16, 17, 18, and 19 leading to $20 ? Please help me to understand this better
That's exactly right. You'd round up. If you don't have the exact bills/change, then you always need to pay a little extra and get change from the cashier in return.
@@FrankMLoSchiavo I see, but in another example what about if a jacket costs $31.49 and it said I could give a $50 bill for it… how does that work ?
@@jasonmitchell5170 If you paid $50 for the jacket you'd get $18.51 in change, so in the end, you'd pay just $31.49 for the jacket. You might want to try using a calculator to practice determining how much change you should receive.
Thank you so much for the update last night I churt too penny I don't want be churt again
I have a question
In 5:48 how is it 64? Like how you got that number what did you add or subract?? Pls help me! 😓
The video focuses on making change in your head, so in my head, I was finding the difference between the $2.36 and the next highest dollar, which is $3.00. In other words, I was focusing on the cents involved. In this situation, I mentally rounded up 4 cents to 40 cents, because it's easier to see that there is 60 cents between 40 cents and the next highest dollar. Then, I needed to add 60 cents and 4 cents to determine that there is 64 cents total between $2.36 and the next highest dollar. That's how I figure out how much change (in terms of coins) must be given back.
Do we have to know this if the cash register does it for us? I'm watching these videos just in case the cash register isn't capable of doing it.
The cash register is able to do it. Just enter the amount the customer paid and the register will compute the correct change. That said, it's important to know how to compute it yourself, so that if you enter the wrong amount into the register, or if there's a power failure, of it the customer believes you made a mistake, etc., you know how to compute it on your own.
I often get customers giving me more change when I had rung everything up.
@@sifugurusensei Yes, that makes things more confusing, and at that point, you can't rely on the change computed by the register. That's when you need to calculate the change in your head, or pull out a calculator. Those can be stressful times, but it's better to take your time and get it right instead of making a mistake.
@@FrankMLoSchiavo calculator's are no good cuz I cant even remember the total. I have math anxiety. I can't keep the numbers in my head even.
Thank goodness I'm not a cashier now.
I have dyscalculia and I can only do simple equations in my head. I can't hold numbers in my head for long because I can't visualize them. if I have to do more than one I lose the numbers I had before and I have to start over. people laugh at me like "he has to count on his fingers" uh, yeah I do have to count on my fingers because I need a way to visualize numbers and if I don't have something to visually see to represent those numbers, I get lost. I have developed some workarounds to this, like making little songs in my head to remember numbers.
I wasn't familiar with dyscalculia, so thank you for sharing. I'm glad you're doing what you need to do to get the job done. I respect that! The songs you've created sound helpful. Maybe you can share them in a video and try to help others with dyscalculia? Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment :)
Yeah dyscalculia is like dyslexia with numbers. as for the songs, I just count in a rhythm, like you know how a phone number has a rhythm? kind of like that. When I was learning multiplication I couldn't memorize times tables like the other kids. I had to frantically count the numbers out in my head while keeping track with my fingers.@@FrankMLoSchiavo
I'm also confused how much cents into cash. ?
Using US Dollars, 100 cents equals 1 dollar, written as $1.00, meaning 1 dollar and no cents. Many people try to avoid carrying coins in their pockets because it is bulky and heavy, so they pay in such a way to minimize the number of coins they receive as change.
is their a quicker way to figure out the distance ..... because I don't have time to figure the gap between 36 and 300 or certain prices involving larger numbers..
Well, the gap between 36 and 300 can be determined just about as quickly as the gap between 36 and 100. You'd just need to add 200 more. I'm not saying it's easy for everyone or that it's quick for everyone, and sometimes, it's better not to rely on your head, particularly when the consequences could be disastrous if you make a mistake.
im going to work soon and still don't know how to count money 💀💀
I hear ya. It's time to start practicing at home. If you've been watching videos about making change, then you're on the right track. It' all about practice. You can do it :)
How can I practice doing this?
Arrange several transactions. Write down somewhere how much you are being charged (just make it up) and also write down how much you would pay. Then, practice making change in your head, and write down your answer. Finally, check yourself with a calculator. Once you get to the point that you're correct nearly every time, then you've mastered it!
@@FrankMLoSchiavo ok thank you bro
Ian finna practice 💴
Practice is good! I always try to compute the change in my head before a cashier gives it to me. It's great practice.
I have a disability similar to autism that includes math issues and I've struggled to make change and count money since the day they tried to teach me. Now, to get a promotion at work, they're requiring me to learn the register, so here we are. Thankfully, it'll tell you the amount of change, and the bills are no problem, but the coins are tripping me up. And after 8 1/2 minutes, I might actually be getting it. How do you do that?!
If my video helped you, then I'm thrilled! Thx so much for reaching out. BTW, the register might show how much change is due, but there will be times when you either enter the wrong amount paid, or the customer decides to pay a different amount, etc., and during those times, you'll benefit from knowing how to calculate the change on your own, just to make sure it's right. Keep practicing. I hope you get that promotion soon :)
Paid: $2
Bill:$2.2
What's it'? How cash is this ?!
I don't recall that example being in the video. If you only pay $2.00 but owe $2.20, then you still owe 20 cents.
@@FrankMLoSchiavo thanks
Yea, I think I'll use the calc instead.
That's often the best thing to do.
I don’t know how to stick this to my head I am having problem on my homework
Keep watching. Practice using real money. It will stick in your mind eventually.
@@FrankMLoSchiavo yeah I’m doing that thanks
I can do paper change but not coins😰
Well, that's a good start. Paper money is somewhat easier because we're dealing with whole number, like $25 or $13. Coins make it a bit more complicated because those whole dollars include hundredths of dollars, such as $13.27. BUT, if might help you to think of the coins just like you think of the paper money. For example, If I owed you $6, but I gave you $10, you'd owe me $4. It would work EXACTLY the same way with coins. If I owed you 6 cents, but I gave you 10 cents, you'd owe me 4 cents. In general, the numbers work the same way. I hope this helps :)
@@FrankMLoSchiavo See the solution you gave me it easy to solve. What I get confused about is like if I owed someone $4.53 i don’t know how to count to 53 with coins but I can give them the 4 paper dollars.
Thanks for the little heads up.
@@dragongamer3245 Gotcha. That's just going to require some practice. When I was younger, paper money and coins were used all the time, for nearly every transaction. But nowadays, younger people see less paper money and coins because people pay with credit cards, debit cards, venmo, etc. So, many younger people are less comfortable with coins, simply due to less experience. But you can get good at making change. You just need to keep searching for information and practice as much as you can. Good luck to you :)
@@dragongamer3245 you can count the coins in 2's denomination.
For 53 cents, we can go by quarters..so 2 quarters + 3 pennies.
Another eg: 78 cents is 2 quarters+ 1 quarter+ 3 pennies.
17 cents is 2 nickel + 1 nickel+ 2 pennies.
34 cents is 2 dimes + 1 dime + 4 pennies...etc
There are other ways too but 2's denomination makes it easier to count the coins without making much mistakes. Hope it helps.
You can just subtract the bills and the owed like in $1.00 - $0.73 = $0.27
Whatever methods works well for you is the right method :)
How to return 23, 27 cents, if 3 and 7 cents are not made in cash?
You can't provide change if you don't have it. So, if you owe 23 cents and you don't have the change to make 23 cents, you're out of luck.
Most stores carry enough change in stock to do business without running short of what they need. But everyday citizens are often unable to make change when dealing with their family, friends, etc. In those cases, the two parties need to come to an agreement.
They need to either come as close to the correct change as possible, or find some change somewhere else, or provide the correct change at a later date, or use an app that transfers money electronically, etc. In other words, if you don't have the resources to make the necessary change, it's up to you and the other party to find an acceptable solution. I hope this helps. Thanks for posting :)
Owen the 77cents with 30
OHHH I get it
Very good lesson. However, if I owe for, example, $15.34, and I pay with a $100 bill, how do I round up? What is the process of thinking?
I'd first calculate how many full dollars I get in return, so I'd round up to $16 and subtract that from $100. I'm able to see that's $84. You could round up to $20 to make it easier to see you're owed $80 plus $4. Then I'd work on the cents part of it. I'd round up to 40 cents, because I can see I'd be owed 60 cents in return. To that I'd add 6 cents. So, you should receive $84.66 in change. I'm not saying that's easy, but that's how I can make it manageable. I hope this helps :)
@@FrankMLoSchiavo Thank you so much for your response. I appreciate it!
@@user-uz2fc3me8i My pleasure :)
Wait how I'n the world do you tell the gap 😭
That's the toughest part of making change in your head. Check the video again to hear my strategies.
Yeah I’m scared first day at work at McDonald’s
@@noxic7860 I can understand being nervous. When making change, rely as much as possible on the cash register, because it's just a big calculator. But as you get more comfortable, try computing the change in your head before looking a the cash register, and then check the cash register to see if your answer is the same. That's one way to practice computing change in your head.
I'm very bad at mental math then how to get job without mental math skills
Most jobs don't require you to do math in your head. You can just use a calculator.
@@FrankMLoSchiavo which jobs please tell me name
@@FrankMLoSchiavocoz I have math anxiety I can't do calculations in my head like mentally plus minus
Make a video on topic
which types of jobs not required to handle financial transactions and not required deal with mental math
@@Sviiiiiiii Most cashiers don't do math in their heads, and making change is what they do all day long. They rely on the cash register to tell them the correct amount of change. I'm a college professor who teaches statistics. I use a calculator. Even though I can do math in my head, I don't need to. My guess is that most jobs in the world do NOT require doing math in one's head.
