Answer:
$82.28
Step-by-step explanation:
Being married puts Celeste on the right half of the table. Four allowances put her in the 5th section down, where 4 is in the left-most column. Her weekly wage of 1298 puts her wage between 923.30 and 2068.20, so on the second line in that section.
The table tells you to subtract $612.37 from Celeste's weekly wage, then multiply the result by 12% to find her withholding. Doing that, we find the withholding to be ...
(1298.00 -612.37) × 0.12 = $82.28 . . . . rounded up to the nearest cent
The withholding tax applicable to Celeste's earnings is $82.28.
