Answer 1

The Soltion:

Given:

Weekly median earnings for men with some college education = 951

Weekly median earnings for women with some college education = 717

We are required to find the difference in yearly median income of the women with some college education and that of the men with some college education.

So,

Men Yearly median income is:

$951\times52=49452$

Women's Yearly median income is:

$717\times52=37284$

So, the difference between these two earnings is:

$49452-37284=\text{ \ }12168$

Therefore, the correct answer is $12,168
