Biweekly means every 2 weeks.
\n" ); document.write( "Two weeks is 14 days, and there are 365 or 366 days in a year.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"365%2F14=26%261%2F14\"$ <---> $\"365=26%2A14%2B1\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"366%2F14=26%262%2F14\"$ <---> $\"366=26%2A14%2B2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "So, Leona will get at least $\"highlight%2826%29\"$ biweekly paychecks in a year.
\n" ); document.write( "However, $\"26%2A14days=364days\"$ after the first paycheck received in a year,
\n" ); document.write( "Leona will be getting another paycheck.
\n" ); document.write( "That could happen within the same 365-day or 366-day calendar year,
\n" ); document.write( "and that last paycheck could be the 27th paycheck she receives in that calendar year. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
