Answer 1

Answer:

$\text{ 78\%}$

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the percentage of the gross pay is the take-home pay

Mathematically, we have to divide the take-home pay by the gross pay and multiply it by 100%

Her take-home pay is the difference between her gross pay and her deductions

We have this as:

$\text{ 4633 - 1009.13 = \ 3,623.87}$

We have this as:

$\frac{3623.87}{4633}\text{ }\times\text{ 100 \% = 78\%}$
