    First, solve for Ralph's debt by using his current gross income and DTI ratio.

    0.29 = D/3,700

    D = 1,073

    Then, solve for the current gross income given that new DTI ratio is 36%.

    0.36 = 1,073 / gross income

    The value of gross income should be $2,980.56. Thus, the answer is letter C.
