Skill: Add money amounts

Line up the amounts by their decimal points. This matches dollars with dollars, tenths with tenths, and hundredths with hundredths.

Example: Add 2.75+$1.68$.

Write the numbers one below the other:

$$\begin{array}{r} \$2.75\\ +\ \$1.68\\ \hline \end{array}$$

1. Add the cents: $75+68=143$ cents.
   Since $100$ cents equals 1$, write$43$in the cents places and regroup$$1$ to the dollars column.

2. Add the dollars, including the regrouped dollar:
   $2+1+1=4$.

3. The total is:

$$\begin{array}{r} \$2.75\\ +\ \$1.68\\ \hline \$4.43 \end{array}$$

So, 2.75+$1.68=\boxed{$4.43}$.
