Question

Lecia earns a gross income of 1,500$per month What is her net income if her tax and other employer deductions are 15%?

Answer 1

Given that Lecia earns a gross income of $1500 per month.

The tax and other employer deductions are 15%

To find the net income we would subtract the tax and other employer deduction from the gross income.

`\text{net income= gross income - tax and other employer deductions}`
`\begin{gathered} \text{net income=1}500-15\text{ \%}*1500 \\ =1500-(15)/(100)*1500 \\ =1500-0.15*1500 \\ =1500-225 \\ =\text{ \$1275} \end{gathered}`

Hence, the net income is $1275
