Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total deductions

First, we need to find the sum of all the deductions. The deductions are $324 (Federal Income Tax), $96 (State Income Tax), $126 (Social Security), and $39 (Medicare). So we add them up: $324 + $96 + $126 + $39.
Let's calculate step by step: $324 + $96 = $420; $420 + $126 = $546; $546 + $39 = $585. So the total deductions are $585.

Step2: Calculate net pay

Net pay is gross pay minus total deductions. Gross pay is $2,695. So we subtract the total deductions from the gross pay: $2,695 - $585.
Calculating that: $2,695 - $585 = $2,110? Wait, no, wait. Wait, 2695 - 585: 2695 - 500 = 2195, then 2195 - 85 = 2110? Wait, but let's check the options. Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, let's recalculate the deductions. Federal Income Tax: 324, State: 96, Social Security: 126, Medicare: 39. Let's add 324 + 96 first: 324 + 96 = 420. Then 126 + 39 = 165. Then 420 + 165 = 585. Then gross pay is 2695. 2695 - 585: 2695 - 500 = 2195, 2195 - 85 = 2110. So the net pay is $2,110.
