cent sign in tables

[Susan Baker]

Hello,
Please see the attached. This is for a first grader. I was not sure if this was considered a tactile graphic, so if need be, I can repost in the math forum. My question is, should the cent signs in the tables be spaced as it is in print (outside of the table to the right), or should I place it immediately after the number value in the penny column, unspaced from the number?
Thank you!
Susan

Hi Susan.
I cannot imagine that you would consider doing these as a tactile, so you would follow Nemeth rules. In my opinion, since the dollar sign is included inside the width of the separation line in a Nemeth spatial arrangement, I would also include the cents sign (in a similar manner), and without a space between the number and cents. If you wish, you could re-post under the Nemeth section, just to make sure!
