Joseph earns $1070 monthly. Of that, $160.50 is withheld for taxes. What percent of Joseph's earnings is withheld?

Respuesta :

Answer:

15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentages are just division.

The percentage of Joseph's earnings withheld for taxes = money spent on taxes/money earned

Percentage = 160.50 / 1070

Percentage = 0.15 = 15%

0.15 = 15% because to get percentages from decimals, you multiply the decimal by 100

Therfore, 15% of Joseph's money is withheld for taxes.

I hope this helps!
