Step-by-step explanation:
Lets translate this word problem into math.
"Latoya's annual salary is $26,000" = We start with the number 26,000
"A total of $7352.24 will be deducted for taxes and health insurance" = It's the number we started with "deducted" (minus) 7352.24
"She will receive her paycheck monthly in 12 equal installments" = Our number will be divided by 12
"How much will she get paid with each paycheck?" = "Find answer pls thx"
To put it all together...
Now all we have to do is solve!
- Subtract.
- Divide.
Answer:
Latoya will get paid $1,553.98 with each paycheck.
