Question

Brenda earns $120 per week working at a part time job. After taxes, her paycheck is only 75% of what she earned. What is the amount of Brenda's check?

Answer 1

90$. 75% of 100 is 75. and 75% of 20 is 15.  20 plus 100 is your total. So adding your percentages (15 and 75) gives you 90. So 75% of 120 is 90
