Explanation:

a)

she makes $44,600 per year.

that is rounded $3,716.67 per month.

the net monthly income is $2,415, so she has rounded deductions of

3716.67 - 2415 = $1,301.67

that is $15,620 per year.

100% = $44,600

1% = 100%/100 = $446

how many % ? that is how often 1% fits into the amount.

15620 / 446 = 35.02242152...%

b)

in 6 months she wants to save $1,800.

that means

1800/6 = $300 per month.

100% = $2,415

1% = $24.15

how many % ?

300 / 24.15 = 12.42236025...%

c)

I guess, the question is really, how much savings she accumulated then in 6 months after the raise.

so, after the raise, she makes now

2415 + 96.60 = $2,511.60

100% = $2,511.60

1% = $25.116

12.4223...% = 1%×12.4223... = 25.116×12.4223... = $312

in 6 months she has then saved

312×6 = $1,872
