Answer:

$2139.58

Explanation:

First, you find how much each paycheck is worth with taxes excluded, since she is only keeping 79% of the money you multiply 65,000 by 0.79=51350. Since she is getting paid twice a month, she is getting 24 paychecks a year. So you diving 51350 by 24 to get 2139.58333 but round down to 2139.58
