Question

After 15% being deducted from your pay and putting 10% into savings how much will you be depositing into your checking account everyweek from your paycheck? You make $138.75 per week prior to deductions.

Answer 1

First, we have to compute 15% of $138.75, as follows:

`138.75\cdot(15)/(100)=20.81`

Next, we have to compute 10% of $138.75, as follows:

`138.75\cdot(10)/(100)=13.88`

Then, you will be depositing $138.75 - $20.81 - $13.88 = $104.06 into your checking account every week
