Question

Jim makes $5.75 an hour. Each week 26% of his total pay is deducted for taxes. How many hours does him have to work if he wants his take home pay to be at least $110 per week?

Answer 1

Answer:

26 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

$5.75 x 26% = $1.49

$5.75-$1.49=$4.26

$4.26 x 25hrs= $106.50 (wrong)

$4.26 x 26hrs= $110.76 (right)
