the correct question is

Compute the total cost per year of the following pair of expenses. Then complete the sentence: On an annual basis, the first set of expenses is _% of the second set of expenses.Sheryl spends $17 every week on cigarettes and spends $24 a month on dry cleaning.


we know that

1 year is equal to 52 weeks

1 year is equal to 12 months

To calculate:

$17 * 52 = $884

$24 * 12 = $288

then

884/288 = 3.0694 * 100 = 306.94%



therefore



the answer is

306.94%
