Answer: $689.50
Explanation:
9.85 x 35 = 344.75
344.75 x 2 = 689.50

You multiply the amount paid by hour by how long she works. Then you multiply the product by 2 because biweekly means every two weeks (bi = 2).

Kris' gross pay is $689.50.

What is Kris' gross pay?

The gross pay is the total income she receives from her work before any deductions. If she is paid biweekly, it means she is paid every two weeks.

Gross pay = (per per hour x total hours worked x 2)

= (9.85 x 35 x 2)

= $689.50
