Conner and Darian made a profit of $40,021.50 on day 1 of the hot chocolate sale. They donated $10,050.25 to their school so their school could purchase more good books. Then Conner gave his dad $25.00 and Darian gave his dad $25.00. Conner and Darian invested the rest of the money so that they can make their hot chocolate shop even better! How much money did they invest?

Answer:29,921.25

Conner and Darian made a profit of $40,021.50 on the first day of their hot chocolate sale. They donated $10,050.25 of that money to their school, which leaves them with $40,021.50 - $10,050.25 = $29,971.25.

Conner and Darian each gave their dad $25.00, which means they gave a total of $25.00 * 2 = $<<25*2=50.00>>50.00 to their dads.

This means that Conner and Darian had $29,971.25 - $50.00 = $29,921.25 left to invest in their hot chocolate shop.
