We know that the mechanic works 35 hours a weeks.

We also know the gets paid $16.75/hour.

First we must multiply:

35(hours) * $16.75 (hourly wage)

weekly income = ...?

Now we need to know his annual income. There are 52 weeks in a year.

We must take the weekly income and multiply that to the amount of weeks in a year.

52 * ...?

I hope this helps you understand how to solve the question and furthermore know how to solve the breakdown for next time. :)
