To form an equation from the word problem, first break the given statement into smaller statements.
First, we are given the width of the rectangle as x. We are told, the length is two times width. Mathematically, this means
Length=2*width=2*x=2x

Before we compare the values of the options, we convert the decimals to fractions.
5.4 becomes 54/10
6.25 becomes 625/100
Thus, the set of fractions is 11/2, 54/10, 13/3, 625/100. The least common denominator for 2, 10, 3, and 100 is 300, which we use to compare each options given.
11/2*300=1650
54/10*300=1620
13/3*300=1300
625/100*300=1875
From the above, 1875 is the greatest value which corresponds to 6.25. Therefore, 6.25 is the greatest value of all the choices given.

Weekly net income=weekly gross income-total tax
Total tax=federal income tax+state income tax+Social Security tax
