Practice Question

A teacher earns $730.00 per week before any tax deductions. The following taxes are deducted each week: $72.00 federal income tax, $35.00 state income tax, and $65.00 Social Security tax. How much will the teacher make in 4 weeks after taxes are deducted?

Answer Choices:

Correct Answer:

$2,232.00

Rationale:

💵The teacher's total weekly deductions include $72.00 (federal) + $35.00 (state) + $65.00 (Social Security) = $172.00.

🧮Subtracting $172.00 from the gross weekly pay of $730.00 gives a net weekly pay of $558.00.

📆To determine earnings over 4 weeks, multiply the net weekly pay: $558.00 × 4 = $2,232.00.

📊This calculation reflects the teacher’s actual take-home pay after all specified taxes are subtracted.


📌Core Message

Subtract total weekly deductions from gross pay, then multiply by weeks to find net monthly income.
