Answer:

The correct answer is US$ 2,923.08 for Josh and US$ 186.80 for Sarah

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Josh

Annual salary = US$ 76,000

Number of weeks in a year = 52

Salary per week = 76,000 / 52

Salary per week = US$ 1,461.54

Bi-weekly salary = 1,461.54 x 2

Bi-weekly salary = US$ 2,923.08

Josh earns US$ 2,923.08 per every period of two weeks

2. Sarah

Wage = US$ 9.34 per hour

Hours per week = 20

Gross salary per week = 9.34 * 20

Gross salary per week = US$ 186.80

Sarah earns US$ 186.80 as gross salary per week
