If Marisol has a gross annual pay of $50,000 and receives total employee benefits of 14.5% of her gross annual pay, then you can find how many benefits she receives, using proportion:

[tex] \$50,000 - 100\%,\\ \$x - 14,5\% [/tex].

Then

[tex] \dfrac{50000}{x} =\dfrac{100}{14.5} ,\\\\ x=\dfrac{50000\cdot 14.5}{100}=500\cdot 14.5=7250 [/tex].

In total she will receive $50,000+$7250=$57250.

Answer: $57250.
