Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Wendy's pay stub shows gross pay of $500.00. Deductions are federal tax $50.00, state tax $25.00, and insurance $20.00. What is the net income?

Solution & Explanation:Net income is gross pay minus deductions. Total deductions are $50.00 + $25.00 + $20.00 = $95.00. Then $500.00 − $95.00 = $405.00.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Victor's pay stub shows gross pay of $840.00. Deductions are federal tax $84.00, state tax $42.00, and insurance $35.00. What is the net income?

Solution & Explanation:Net income is gross pay minus deductions. Total deductions are $84.00 + $42.00 + $35.00 = $161.00. Then $840.00 − $161.00 = $679.00.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Uma buys shoes priced at $64.50. They use a coupon for $15.00 off. Sales tax is 7.5% and is calculated after the coupon. What is the final total price? Enter dollars.

Solution & Explanation:First subtract the coupon: 64.50 − 15.00 = 49.50. Tax = 7.5% of 49.50 = 3.71. Total = 49.50 + 3.71 = 53.21.
