A Correct answer
Explanation

'Although' is the correct subordinating conjunction to introduce a concession clause. It properly connects two ideas: the surprising fact that her salary is higher despite doing the same work. 'Despite' is a preposition that must be followed by a noun phrase, 'however' is an adverb requiring different sentence structure, and 'eventhough' is misspelled (should be 'even though').
