Question

If 15° per dollar is

deducted from my pay
for taxes, how much
would my pay be for
40 hours at the starting
wage of $4.75 per
hour?​

Answer 1

$161.50

Explanation:

Assuming you mean 15% is deducted, then your pay is 100% -15% = 85% of the nominal rate. For 40 hours, that is ...

(40 h)($4.75/h)(0.85) = $161.50

Your pay for 40 hours will be $161.50.
