Step-by-step explanation:

Monthly salary of Janice = $2,396

Federal income tax withholding = 15% × 2,396

                                                     = 0.15 × 2396

                                                     = $359.40

Social security tax                       = 6.2% of 2,396

                                                    = 0.062 × 2,396

                                                    = $148.55

Medicare tax                               = 1.45% of 2,396

                                                    = 0.0145 × 2,396

                                                    = $34.74

Health insurance premiums       = $95.00

Total withholding = 359.40 + 148.55 + 34.74 + 95

                             = $637.69

Janice's net pay = 2396 - 637.69 = $1,758.31
