Answer:

C. Makita helped her 4 younger brothers with their homework.

Step-by-step explanation:

Extraneous information is the information which is not needed to solve the question. In this Makita helped 4 brothers is extraneous information because it does not solve the question asked. The question asked is how much did she earn? For this we need to know that she worked a total of 3 hours. Her aunt paid her $ 10.00 per hour. But it has nothing to do with her brothers.

And ofcourse the question asked how much did she earn cannot be extraneous information itself.

Option C shows the extraneous information.

Option A, B and D are required in the question to answer.
