In a week, a man received a paycheck for $300.10. The withholding for taxes was $95.90. If he worked 33 hours in that week, what is his hourly pay rate?
To find the man's hourly pay rate, we can divide his total paycheck by the number of hours he worked.
Hourly pay rate = total paycheck / number of hours
Hourly pay rate = ($300.10 - $95.90) / 33
Hourly pay rate = $204.20 / 33
Hourly pay rate ≈ $6.19
The man's hourly pay rate is approximately $6.19.
no its not
Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct the calculation.
Hourly pay rate = (Total paycheck - Withholding for taxes) / Number of hours
Hourly pay rate = ($300.10 - $95.90) / 33
Hourly pay rate = $204.20 / 33
Hourly pay rate ≈ $6.19
The man's hourly pay rate is approximately $6.19.
come on
I apologize for the error. Let's calculate the correct hourly pay rate.
Hourly pay rate = Total paycheck / Number of hours
Hourly pay rate = $300.10 / 33
Hourly pay rate ≈ $9.10
The man's hourly pay rate is approximately $9.10.
it was 12
Apologies for the mistake. Let's recalculate.
Hourly pay rate = Total paycheck / Number of hours
Hourly pay rate = $300.10 / 33
Hourly pay rate ≈ $9.10
The correct hourly pay rate is approximately $9.10.
IT WAS 12 THE ANSWER WAS 12
Apologies for the confusion. Let's calculate the hourly pay rate again:
Hourly pay rate = Total paycheck / Number of hours
Hourly pay rate = $300.10 / 33
Hourly pay rate ≈ $9.10
The correct hourly pay rate is approximately $9.10.
If the correct hourly pay rate is $12, we need to recalculate:
Total paycheck = Hourly pay rate * Number of hours
$300.10 = $12 * 33
$300.10 = $396
This calculation does not result in the given total paycheck amount of $300.10. If the total paycheck is indeed $300.10, then the correct hourly pay rate is approximately $9.10.
Perform the indicated operation.
