Respuesta :
His net pay as a percent of his gross pay is 324.16/594.00 x 100 = 55%
Mr. Powell brought home $324.16 in net pay last week. His gross pay was $594.00. Then
$594 -- 100%,
$324.16 -- x%,
or mathematically it sounds as proportion:
[tex]\dfrac{\$594}{\$324.16}=\dfrac{100\%}{x\%}.[/tex]
Find x:
[tex]x\%=\dfrac{\$324.16\cdot 100\%}{\$594}\approx 55\%[/tex]
