Answer:

Job A is the best option considering the financial benefits.

Step-by-step explanation:

Job A will pay a net weekly salary of 290$, whereas job B will pay a weekly net salary of only 185$. Job B not only requires to take a bus, but the fare is significantly high, and after paying the bus fare an individual will be left with only 185$ which is 105$ less than job A. So seeing the weekly net salary of both the jobs, an individual must go for job A.
