Practice Question

A nurse earns $800.00 per week before any tax deductions. The following taxes are deducted each week: $83.00 federal income tax, $38.00 state income tax, and $79.00 Social Security tax. How much will the nurse make in 4 weeks after taxes are deducted?

Answer Choices:

Correct Answer:

$2,400.00

Rationale:

💰Weekly deductions: $83 + $38 + $79 = $200.

📊Net weekly pay: $800 - $200 = $600. Over 4 weeks: $600 × 4 = $2,400.

🧾This gives the post-tax earnings over a month.

📘Other answers overestimate the amount because they do not subtract taxes.


📌Core Message

To find monthly net pay, subtract all weekly deductions and then multiply by the number of weeks.
