question 3. 3. ms. yamato’s gross pay is $2644. her deductions total $548.30.
what percent of her gross pay is take-home pay?
(points : 1)
84%
79%
21%
18%

$17.07; $97.22; 79%

Step-by-step explanation:

Jay's gross pay will be before anything is deducted; this means it is

432.18+82.42+31.70 = $546.30.

He earned this by working 32 hours; this makes his hourly wage

546.30/32 = 17.071875 ≈ $17.07

6.2% of an employee's pay is withheld for Social Security.  This means that

0.062(1568) = 97.216 ≈ $97.22 is withheld.

Ms. Yamato's net pay is given by subtracting her deductions from her gross pay:

2644-548.30 = $2095.70

To find the percent of her gross pay that her take home pay represents, we divide:

2095.7/2644 = 0.7926 ≈ 0.79 = 79%

d is the correct answer

step-by-step explanation:

x= 8 because 3x = 3 * 8, and 3*8 = 24

unless you made a typo, the answers are both a and c.

step-by-step explanation:

1.5/3 is .5 whereas 3/9 is .3333333 not proportional

22/33 is .66666 and 4/6 is also .66666 proportional

2/4 is .5 whereas 142/213 is .66666 not proportional

14/7 is 2 and 7/3.5 is also 2 proportional

you could've also checked it by doing this simple division:

if the larger fraction divides with the smaller fraction to equal 1, it is proportional. so let me show you what i mean:

when i divide 22/33 by 4/6 i get 1, so we know it is proportional, and it is the same with 14/7 and 7/3.5. now if i divide 3/9 by 1.5/3 i get .66666 so therefore we know it is not proportional.

there are many ways to do this so i wanted to show you some possible ways.
