Question

You won the lottery! They will send you a check every week in the amount of $500 before taxes. If they take out $98.75 out of each paycheck for taxes, how much you earn at the end of two weeks?

Answer 1

the answer is $802.50. If you get $98.75 taken out of $500. 500-98.75 that leaves you with getting $401.25 a week. So then you would do 401.25*2 since you want to figure out what the total is after 2 weeks
