Answer 1

Take the full amount of her pay and multiply it by .0007 equaling 3.8ish percent

Answer 2

Answer:  $\dfrac{70}{543}$ of her monthly take home pay is saved by her.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of savings = $700

We need to find the proportion of her monthly take home pay is saving.

So, Proportion of her monthly take home pay which is saving is given by

$\dfrac{700}{5430}\\\\=\dfrac{70}{543}$

Hence, $\dfrac{70}{543}$ of her monthly take home pay is saved by her.
