Answer:

To save 6 months' worth in a fund would be $2858.59.

Step-by-step explanation:

At a wage of $13.70 per hour for a 40 hour work week, your gross pay (not including any taxes or deductions) is $548 per week, or $2192 per month.  Deductions and taxes are 7.65% + 11.55% + 8.35%, for a total of 27.55% that comes out of your gross pay.  $2192 multiplied by 27.55%, or .2755, is $603.90, therefore, in order to find your realized income per month, you must subtract your gross pay by the amount of deductions and tax withholdings:  $2192 - $603.90 = 1588.10.  Another 30% of your realized income is for housing and fixed expenses, or $1588.10 multiplied by 30%, or 0.30, which comes to $476.43.  If you want to save 6 months' of expenses in an emergency fund, simply take your monthly expenses, $476.43, and multiply by 6 = $2,858.59.

What is the prime factorization of 200?<br><br> 2 2 × 5 3<br> 2 3 × 5 2<br> 2 4 × 5<br> 2 × 5 4
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

2^3 * 5^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to break 200 down into prime numbers

200 = 20*10  These are not prime

       = 4*5  * 2*5    The 4 is not prime

       = 2*2*5  * 2*5  This is prime

Rearranging

       = 2*2*2*5*5

       = 2^3 * 5^2
