To calculate how much the amount in Sheila's bank account changed during the week, we need to add up all the transactions.

Withdrawals: 4 withdrawals of $40 each = 4 x $40 = $160
Check card purchase: $156
Deposit: $375

Total withdrawals = $160
Total purchases = $156
Total deposit = $375

Net change = Total deposit - (Total withdrawals + Total purchases)
Net change = $375 - ($160 + $156)
Net change = $375 - $316
Net change = $59

Therefore, the amount in Sheila's bank account increased by $59 during the week.
