The Porters are moving because Mr. Porter got a new job. Until Mrs. Porter finds a job in the new city, the Porter family will live on Mr. Porter’s salary. In the new city, his gross pay is $7,500 per month. His deductions include the following:

Federal income tax $1,400
State income tax $535
Social Security $415
Medicare $150

What is Mr. Porter’s net pay each month?
