To find out the total amount of money the girls earned at the bake sale, we need to multiply the amount each person received by the number of people.
Each person received $23.19, and since there are three people (Jan and her two friends), we calculate the total as follows:
\[
\text{Total money earned} = \text{Amount per person} \times \text{Number of people}
\]
\[
\text{Total money earned} = 23.19 \times 3
\]
Now, calculate \( 23.19 \times 3 \):
\[
23.19 \times 3 = 69.57
\]
Thus, the total amount of money earned at the bake sale is:
\[
\boxed{69.57}
