Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate how much you need to earn each month (January, February, and March) to be just over the gross income of $2495, you can divide that amount by 3 (since there are 3 months) and then add a small amount to ensure that you are over the limit. Here's how you can do that:

1) Divide the gross income by 3:

$2495 ÷ 3 = $831.67 (rounded to the nearest cent)

2) Add a small amount to each month's income to ensure that you are over the limit. You could add $1 or $5, for example. Let's say you add $5 to each month:

January: $831.67 + $5 = $836.67

February: $831.67 + $5 = $836.67

March: $831.67 + $5 = $836.67

So for each month, you should report an income of $836.67 (or whatever amount you calculated using the method above) to ensure that you are over the gross income limit of $2495.
