Answer 1

Answer:

His earnings for the period= $123

Step-by-step explanation:

Kevin's total payroll deductions are 30% of his earnings. His deductions add up to $369 for a two week period.

If 30% of his earnings = $369

His earnings = x

30/100 * x= 369

X= 369*100/30

X= 123*10

X=$ 1230

His earnings for the period= $123
