Question

Abby lakes home $4100 biweekly, after taking out 32% for payroll deductions. What is Abby's biweekly salary, before

deductions

Answer 1

Abby's biweekly salary before deductions = $12813

Explanation:

let x be the biweekly salary

as per given:

32% of x = 4100

x * 32/100 = 4100

x * .32 = 4100

x = 4100/.32 = 12812.5 = $12813

thus,

Abby's biweekly salary before deductions = $12813
