To find the total amount of money earned at the bake sale, you can multiply the amount each person received by the number of people.

Jan and her three friends make a total of 4 people.

Amount each person received: $24.49

Total earnings = 4 * $24.49

Calculating that:

Total earnings = 4 * 24.49 = 97.96

So, the girls earned a total of 97.96 at the bake sale.
