    D. $2,511

    Step-by-step explanation:

    $23 x 28 x 52 = $33,488

    $33,488 : 12 = $2,790.66 = $2,791

    12 ($2,791) - $3,360 = 30,132

    $30,132 : 12 = [$2,511]

    D. $2,511

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First off, we need to write down the facts we know.

    There are about 52.177 weeks in a year

    Cesar works 28 hours each week

    Cesar makes $23 an hour

    There are 12 months in a year

    Cesar has $3,360 after his monthly expenses

    To figure out how many hours are in a "work year," multiply the number of work hours in a week by the number of weeks in a year. In other words, multiply Cesar's 28 hour work week by about 52.177 weeks. That makes 1,456 hours in his work year. That means he makes $33,492 a year. If you multiply $2,511 by the months in a year (12), you get $30132. Finally, subtract his annual salary by $30132 to get $3,360, which is what was left of Cesar's earnings after paying all of his monthly expenses.
