Answer with explanation:

Gross Annual Salary of Brianna's= $ 50,676

Monthly Salary of Brianna's


=(50676)/(12)\\\\=4223$

We will use
(28)/(36) rule here,which states that, 28% of monthly income should be used for housing expenditures,and 36 % of monthly income should be used for paying Debt or Debt Purposes.

So, Maximum Monthly Rent that Brianna can pay

= 28 % of 4223


=(28)/(100) * 4223\\\\ =(118244)/(100)\\\\=1182.44

=$ 1182 (Approx)

Option C: $ 1182
