Answer: 15.07%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Gross Pay: $56
State Tax Withholding: $1.60
Social Security Tax: $2.35
Federal Tax Withholding: $3.68
Medicare Tax: $.81 .00
Total tax = (State Tax Withholding + Social Security Tax + Federal Tax Withholding + Medicare Tax)
= $(1.60+ 2.35+3.68+0.81)
= $8.44
So, the percent of Mia's gross pay goes for taxes = (Total tax ) ÷ (Gross (pay) × 100
=(8.44 )÷ (56) × 100
= 15.07%
Hence, the percent of Mia's gross pay goes for taxes is 15.07%.
Answer:
The sun is 9.2549 x 10^-7 miles from the earth
NOTE: I don't know how many significant figures you are needing/given.
Step-by-step explanation:
The earth is 92.549 million miles from the sun.
92 549 000 miles from the sun.
Move the decimal place left until you're right after the first significant figure.
9.2549 x 10^-7
We can solve this system using elimination:
(x+y=24)3
3x+5y=100
3x+3y=72
-(3x+5y=100)
0x-2y=-28
y=14
We can then plug this back into one of the original equations:
x+14=24
x=10
We can check our answer by plugging this into both of the original equations:
10+14=24
24=24
3(10) + 5(14)=100
30+70=100
100=100
Therefore, there are 10 3-point questions and 14 5-point questions.
Answer:
24 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the amount of peaches in a fruit salad, you would multiply the cups of salad by 2/5 because 2 cups of peaches are dedicated to the fruit salad for every 3 cups of cherries, having the peaches make up 2 out of every 5 cups or 2/5. So the equation would be 60=0.4x, with x being the cups of peaches.
Table: The number 60 goes underneath 5.
The number 7 goes above 84.
120 under 10.
12 above 144.
Explanation: Refer to the next question. Each ratio will equal out to 1/12 so you either divide or multiply 12 for each one.
5x12=60
84/12=7
10x12=120
144/12=12
1. 1/12
Explanation:
2 packets of flavoring to 24 ounces of water, 24/2 is 12.
4. 276 ounces of water
Explanation:
12 ounces of water to every packet of flavoring so we need to multiply 23 by 12 which equals 276.
5. Yes. (9.5, 114) makes sense because it follows the ratio of 1:12. 114/9.5=12; 9.5x12=114.
6. 36/3, 66/5, 108/9, 180/15
Explanation:
24/2 = 12, multiply each bottom number by 12 and divide each top number by 12.
7. It uses multiplication because you are multiplying by 12.
