Answer:

$6,106.87

Explanation:

The total of percentage deductions is ...

state tax + city tax + social security + medicare

= 3.5% +2.5% +6.2% +1.45% = 13.65%

Then Ryleigh's take-home pay is ...

gross(1 -13.65%) -112 = 5161.28

gross = (5161.28 +112)/0.8635 = 6106.87

Ryleigh's monthly gross is $6,106.87.
