19.607...% of her gross pay is being taken out in taxes.

Step-by-step explanation

Susie paid $579 in taxes on gross income of $2953

For finding the percentage of tax, first we need to divide the amount of tax paid by the total gross income and then multiply the result by 100%

So, percentage of tax
= (579)/(2953)*100% = 19.607....%
