Question

An operator in the plant has a monthly salary of $2575. Thirty-three percent (33%) of her salary is deducted for income tax. How much money is deducted from her salary for income tax each month?

Answer 1

This is a simple question on percentages.

We want 33% of $ 2575.

% means out of 100.

so we have :

33/100 of 2575

We multiply to get :

33/100 × 2575 = 849.75

= $ 849.75
