Question

Your gross weekly earnings are $375. If Wis is your weekly salary, your monthly salary is determined by the equation, M = 52W/12.

Determine your monthly salary.

answers below:

$1,610

$1,625

$1,725

$1,775

Answer 1

To find your monthly salary \( M \) from your gross weekly earnings \( W \), we can use the equation:

\[
M = \frac{52W}{12}
\]

Given that your gross weekly earnings \( W = 375 \), we can substitute that value into the equation:

\[
M = \frac{52 \times 375}{12}
\]

Now performing the calculation step-by-step:

1. Calculate \( 52 \times 375 \):
\[
52 \times 375 = 19500
\]

2. Now divide that result by 12:
\[
M = \frac{19500}{12} = 1625
\]

Thus, your monthly salary \( M \) is:

\[
\boxed{1625}
\]
