Question

Ivana Chase has a gross monthly income of $5,400. She pays 16% in federal and state taxes, puts aside 12% of her income to pay off her school loan, and puts 5% of her income aside for savings. She is considering an apartment that will rent for $1,700 per month. How much will remain after she pays for the rent and other expenses?​

Answer 1

$82

Explanation:

let's start by finding (16+12+5)% of 5,400

33% of 5,400 is 1,782

now lets subtract 1,700 from 1,782

=$82
