First, find a common denominator and revise all fractions to have the same denominator. the common denominator for this equation is 8. 1/2 = 4/8, and 1/4 = 2/8. now, the new equation is 4/8 + 1/8 - 2/8. 5/8 - 2/8 = 3/8, or 0.375

Chuck has a gross pay of $815.70. By how much will Chuck’s gross pay be reduced if he has the following items withheld? federal

tangare [24]

Chuck has a gross pay of $815.70. His gross pay will be reduced by:

Federal tax of $56;
Social Security tax that is 6.2% of his gross pay;
Medicare tax that is 1.45% of his gross pay;
State tax that is 19% of his federal tax.

Let's count:

1. gross pay of $815.70 - 100%,

Social Security tax of $x - 6.2%.

Then

$\dfrac{815.70}{x}=\dfrac{100}{6.2} ,\\ \\815.70\cdot 6.2=x\cdot 100,\\ \\x=\dfrac{815.70\cdot 6.2}{100} =50.5734.$

2. gross pay of $815.70 - 100%,

Medicare tax of $y - 1.45%.

Then

$\dfrac{815.70}{y}=\dfrac{100}{1.45} ,\\ \\815.70\cdot 1.45=y\cdot 100,\\ \\y=\dfrac{815.70\cdot 1.45}{100} =11.82765.$

3. Federal tax of $56 - 100%,

State tax $z - 19%.

Then

$\dfrac{56}{z}=\dfrac{100}{19} ,\\ \\56\cdot 19=z\cdot 100,\\ \\z=\dfrac{56\cdot 19}{100} =10.64.$

4. Chuck’s gross pay will be reduced by

$\$56+\$50.5734+\$11.82765+\$10.64=\$129.04105\approx \$129.04.$

Answer:

I don't know if this is correct but wouldn't it be 560?

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have 10 on one side, you divide 10 by 1/4 to get 40. So you need 40 blocks to fill one side, and 3 1/2 on the other only needs 14. 14*40=560.
