Stanley's standard deduction on his federal income tax return is $5700 if he paid $4590 in state taxes and $1230 in mortgage interest last year should he use his standard deduction?

He should use the standard deduction if it's more than the itemized deductions. Is 5700 more than 4590 + 1230 ?

No because it is less than the deduction he would get from itemizing.
