To use Change Maker, choose a difficulty level and, a currency by clicking on the flag of a country. Mentally subtract how much money is expected back when an item is purchased. If the answer is correct, the amount of change is added to the piggy bank. If the answer is incorrect, the correct amount of change is subtracted from the piggy bank.
