Your favorite radio station is having a contest! The host poses a question to the listeners. If the caller answers correctly, he or she wins the prize money. If the caller answers incorrectly, $30 is added to the prize money and the next caller is eligible to win! The contest starts with a $100 prize for the first caller.

Part A: The first 4 callers have all missed the question. How much money is the 5th caller eligible to win? Show your work or explain your thinking.



Part B: You are the 12th caller to call in, and you win the prize! How much money will you win?
