To determine the percentage of the total monthly income set aside for savings, we need to divide the amount of savings ($850) by the total monthly income and multiply by 100.

Total monthly income = $450 + $1,000 + $300 + $150 + $850 + $350 + $1,500 + $700 = $4,300

Percentage of savings = ($850 / $4,300) * 100 ≈ 19.77%

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the approximate percentage is 19.77%.

Therefore, the correct answer is 19.61%.

To determine the difference between the annual pay and the equivalent hourly wage, we need to divide the annual pay by the number of working hours in a year.

Number of working hours in a year (assuming 40 hours per week and 52 weeks per year) = 40 * 52 = 2080 hours

Equivalent hourly wage = $121,991 / 2080 hours ≈ $58.65

To find the difference, we subtract the living hourly wage from the equivalent hourly wage:

Difference = $58.65 - $53.30 = $5.35

Rounded to two decimal places, the difference is $5.35.

Therefore, the correct answer is $5.35.
