Andie Iverson was paid a biweekly salary of $1,230 as an assistant exterminator. Now he is paid on a semimonthly basis. What is Andie’s semimonthly salary?

Respuesta :

52 weeks a year so biweekly = 26

biweekly salary of $1,230

$1,230 x 26 = $31,980 annual



12 months a year, semimonthly = 12 x 2 = 24

$31,980 / 24 = $1,332.50 semimonthly 

ansswer: Andie’s semimonthly salary is  $1,332.50

Answer:

His semimonthly salary is $ 1,332.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Andie's biweekly salary = $1,230

⇒ His one week salary = [tex]\frac{1,230}{2}[/tex] = $ 615

We know that,

The number of weeks in a year = 52,

Also, his 52 weeks salary = 52 × His one week salary

= 52 × 615

= $ 31980

Thus, his one year salary = $ 31980

Now, the number of months in a year = 12

⇒ His 12 months salary = $ 31980

⇒ His 1 month salary = [tex]\frac{31980}{12}[/tex] = $ 2665

His 1/2 month salary = [tex]\frac{2665}{2}[/tex] = $ 1332.5

Hence, his semimonthly salary is $ 1,332.5.
