Answer:

$6.80/fortnight

Explanation:

You need to know there are 13 weeks in a quarter, and 2 weeks in a fortnight. The conversion is straightforward.


\frac{\$44.20}{\text{quarter}}*\frac{1\text{ quarter}}{13\text{ weeks}}*\frac{2\text{ weeks}}{1\text{ fortnight}}=\frac{\$44.20*2}{13\text{ fortnight}}\\\\=\boxed{\$6.80\text{/fortnight}}
