Answer 1

To calculate how much Margo will save every month, we first need to find 22% of her monthly paycheck of $2500.

**Calculation of 22% of $2500:**

\[
0.22 \times 2500 = 550
\]

So, Margo saves $550 each month.

Now, to find out how much she will save after a year (12 months), we multiply her monthly savings by the number of months:

\[
550 \times 12 = 6,600
\]

Therefore, after a year of saving, Margo will have saved **$6,600**.

**Answer:** $6,600
