Steve earns $6.50 an hour. He worked 25 hours in the previous 1-week pay period. If Steve's employer withholds 10% of each of Steve's paychecks to pay Steve's income tax, how much will Steve take home in this week's paycheck?

Answer 1

146.25$ is the a answer for sure

Answer 2

$146.25

10% of 162.5

162.5 × 10 ÷ 100

his week paycheck

162.5 - 16.25

= $146.25
