<span>To find her take home pay, you subtract her deductions from her gross pay and then divide her take-home pay by her gross pay and then multiply by 100%.
So,
</span><span>Take-home pay = 2644-548.30=2095.70
Percent = (2095.70/2644)*100%=79.262%
So your answer is </span><span>B)79%

You first need to make the denominators on both fractions the same and how to do that is simple. What does 6 and 8 go into to? Well, the answer is 24. You multiply 5/6 into 4 and you should get 20/24. Then, you multiply 3/8 into 3 and you should get 9/24. Now the last part is easy, you just subtract 20/24 and 9/24 and you should get 11/24 as your answer. It cannot be simplified. Hope it helped.
First, let's find out how much the 6 boxes weigh. If one box of clay weighs 17.4 ounces, then how much does 6 boxes weigh? Well, let's multiply.
17.4 × 6 = 104.4
Next, let's find out how much clay each student get. Since there are 18 students and only 6 boxes, let's find this out by dividing the ounces.
104.4 ÷ 18 = 5.8
So, each student gets 5.8 ounces of clay. I hope this helps!
