ANSWER:

C. $1,538.46

Explanation:

To understand the question we must take into account that it is the gross payment, which is the payment received by the employee agreed with the company, without taking into account deductions or bonuses.

Therefore, we calculate it with the total payment divided by the amount of payments, like this:


\begin{gathered} p=(40000)/(26) \\ \\ p=\text{ \$}1538.46 \end{gathered}

So the correct answer is C. $1,538.46
