For problem 1, you need to fill in the rest of the two boxes. They give you a percent so you multiply the percent by the gross pay.
For example in the Social Security box it would be 0.062*$19000 = $1170.
In problem 3, you calculate net pay by subtracting the medicare, Social Security, and Federal tax from gross pay. (Net pay = Gross pay - deductions).
Same thing in problem 2: multiply cost of each by 0.0625 and add the product you get from each together.

Let's get the technical jargon out of the way:
Gross Pay = The Total amount of Pay before deductions (so... anything listed on that page is a deduction)
Remember! To take the percent of a number take the decimal value (which you can get by dividing the percent by 100) and multiply that decimal by the number you want to take the percent of!
So let's get started with the problem! (Sorry, but I can only give time for 1 right now, but if need further help just comment and I'll get back to you relatively fast)
#1:
Gross Pay = $1,900.00
Medicare = $27.55
Social Security (6.2%... of Gross Pay) = $1,900.00 * (6.2% / 100) = $117.80
Federal Withholding Income Tax (19%... of Gross Pay) = $1,900.00 * (19% / 100) = $361.00
We need the total of her deductions. So, simply add up all of the 3 deductions listed (all the numbers except gross pay):
$27.55 + $117.80 + $361.00 = $506.35
