Answer:

3,528 cents = 35 dollars and 28 cents

Explanation:

She earns 12 cents for each paper delivered.

=> She earns: 12 x 42 = 504 cents a day

=> She earns: 12 x 42 x 7 = 3528 cents in 1 week.

That is probably the answer you're expecting.

But you shouldn't.

One customer might need more than 1 paper a day, so there's no clear answer to your question.
