Respuesta :

Answer:

$568

Explanation:

Gross salary = $630

Social security tax = 6.2%

Medicare tax = 1.4%

Health insurance = $14.20

We add up what is paid as tax

= 6.2 + 1.4 = 7.6%

7.6% of $630

= 0.076 x 630

= $47.88

So he pays tax of 47.88 dollars from his gross salary

We add his tax to what he pays for health insurance

= 47.88 + 14.20

= $62.08

the formula for net pay:

gross salary - deductions

= $630 - $62.08

= $567.92

this is approximately $568
