we have that

His starting salary is $124,500 annually

Part a) f Jack chooses weekly, what would be his pay?

we know that

1 year=52 weeks

so

124,500/52=$2,394.23

Part b) If Jack chooses biweekly, what would be his pay?

Divide salary annually by 26 weeks

so

124,500/26=$4788.46

Part c) If Jack chooses semimonthly, what would be his pay?

Divide by 12*2=24

124,500/24=$5,187.50

Part d) If Jock chooses monthly, what would be his pay?

Divide by 12

124,500/12=$10,375

Part e) . Which should Jack choose? Does it matter?

I think doesn't matter. The total amount is the same in all cases
