In the box, there are 60 chocolate bars. Esther has 52 chocolate bars, which means she should have access to 8 more chocolate bars in the box.
Each chocolate bar costs 2 dollars. Esther has made 22 dollars, which means we can determine how many chocolate bars she has sold based on the price:
\[
\text{Number of chocolate bars sold} = \frac{\text{Total dollars made}}{\text{Price per chocolate bar}} = \frac{22}{2} = 11
\]
If Esther has sold 11 chocolate bars, then she originally had 52 bars. Therefore, after selling 11 bars, she should have:
\[
52 - 11 = 41 \text{ chocolate bars left}
\]
The statement does not imply any wrongdoing in terms of the chocolate bars in the box, but it could suggest that Esther might have sold more chocolate bars than she initially possessed (if she had originally taken any from the box).
So, to summarize:
- There are still **60 total bars in the box.**
- Esther initially has **52 bars.**
- She sold **11 bars** for her total of 22 dollars.
If she had done anything wrong, it may involve selling more bars than she had availability (if she didn't keep track accurately of what was in her own possession versus what was in the box).
