The percentage of animal wasted is the number of animal wasted over 100

85.7%  of the wild caught animals are wasted

<h3>How to calculate the animal wasted</h3>

From the question, we have:

Animals caught = 6 pounds

Salmon = 1 pound

The total weight in the system is:

Total = 6 pounds + 1 pound

So, we have:

Total = 7 pounds

The percent of wild caught animals wasted is then calculated as:

\%Wasted = \frac{6}{7} * 100\%

Simplify

\%Wasted = 85.7\%

Hence, 85.7%  of the wild caught animals are wasted

John has gross biweekly earnings of $743.61. By claiming 1 more withholding allowance, John would have $19 more in his take home
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Total withholding allowances are 39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the gross earning of John = $743.61

It is given that 1 withholding allowance = $19

Now we have to find the total number of withholding allowances. Here, the number of withholding allowances can be determined by dividing the total earnings with $19.

Number of withholding allowances = 743.61 / 19 = 39.14 or 39 (round off).
