No, what you did is not correct. To find the amount deducted from Angelo's pay each month, you need to multiply his pay by the deduction rate.
First, calculate the deduction rate as a decimal by dividing it by 100: 30% / 100 = 0.3.
Next, multiply Angelo's monthly pay by the deduction rate: $2,080 * 0.3 = $624.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. $624.00.
