A bank deposit slip lists checks of 320, 520, and 180 and cash of 60. What is the total deposit?

• A. 1080
• B. 1120
• C. 1000
• D. 940

Answer: (A)

When figuring a bank deposit, you add every amount listed on the slip: each check plus the cash. So add 320, 520, 180, and 60 together. One way to see it is 320 + 520 = 840, and 180 + 60 = 240, then 840 + 240 = 1080. The total deposit is 1080, which is the amount represented by summing all items on the slip.
