Hello ;)
We have :
Claude's net pay → $985.50
Claude's gross pay → $1350.00
We know that the gross pay represents 100 % of the salary.
So :
$1350.00 ⇔ 100 %
$985.50 ⇔ ? %
? = 985.5 × 100 ÷ 1350 = 73 %
Claude's net pay is 73 % of the gross pay.
:-)
Based on his net pay being $985.50 and his gross pay being $1,350.00, the net pay is 73% of the gross pay.
To find out how much of the percentage of something a variable is, you make the variable the numerator and the other measure the denominator.
In this instance that would be:
= Net pay / Gross pay x 100%
= 985.50 / 1,350 x 100%
= 73%
In conclusion, the net pay is 73% of the gross pay.
