The amount that goes into his pension monthly is $198.00.

Explanation:

In order to determine how much the pension is per month, multiply his monthly salary by 6% as a decimal.

Convert 6% into a decimal.

6%=6/100=0.06

Multiply the captain's monthly salary by 0.06. The result will be the amount of his pension.

$3300.00xx0.06=$198.00
