Question

Damien worked at a grocery store earning $9.00 an hour. He worked 30 hours a week and was paid every two weeks. He paid $62 in taxes and had a $50 savings account deduction. What was Damien's gross income?

Answer 1

540 should be the correct answer:) , hope I’m right

Answer 2

$540

Explanation:

We know Damien earned $9 per hour, worked 30 hours a week and was paid every 2 weeks.

We can write an expression to something like this:

(9 x 30) x 2

Which would give us 540

The question asks for the Gross income (the total income, before any taxes or deductions)

Which means that his gross income was $540
