Answer:

$726

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 1210 by 2.

1210/ 2 = 605

Distribute .20% more to Kelly's name and subtract .20% from Scott's name.

605 x .20 = 121

Kelly: 605 + 121= 726

Scott: 605- 121 = 484

Recheck if both numbers add up to 1210.

726 + 484 = 1210

Check to see if Kelly earns 20% more than Scott. By doing this we will see what 20% of 1210 is.

1210 x .20= 242

Subtract Scott's pay from Kelly's pay.

726- 484= 242

There is a 20% difference in their pay, therefore Kelly is being paid $726 per week.
