Answer:

She only pays $292.95 every month

Explanation:

Monthly premium is the amount of money which she pays her insurance company monthly.

The total monthly premium that Sarah pays is $465.00.

The health benefits Sarah receives from her employer covers 37% of the total monthly premium that she pays. This means she only has to pay the total monthly premium - 37% of the total monthly premium

So Sarah only has to pay 465 - 37/100×465 = 465-0.37×465

=465-172.05 = $292.95

So Sarah saves $172.05
