What is in this set

The numbers in this set run from 1 to 6.
A careful solution takes 4 written steps on average.
The mistake this set invites most often, in 100% of the problems: the coins were counted rather than added up; each kind is worth a different number of cents.
Answers are an amount with two decimal places.

Drawing 240 problems from this page produced 146 different ones, 61% — so a sheet of 20 is a new sheet almost every time.

We would put this in front of a grade 3 class. That is our judgement, not a standard, and it is printed here so you can disagree with it. Everything else we put in that year.
