Congratulations! You have gotten a summer job selling ice cream bars at the park! You get paid $100, up front, for the summer and then $0.25 for each bar you sell. You plan to save all the money you earn.

Question

What is the initial value of your savings?

$0.25

Not enough information is given

$100.25

$100

Answer 1

The initial value of your savings is $100, as this is the amount you get paid upfront for the summer. The earnings from the ice cream bars you sell ($0.25 per bar) would be added to this amount later on, but initially, your savings begin at $100.

So, the correct answer is $100.
