Question

Solve the following probably vomit income tax show all your work Priya had $52.50 deducted From their paycheck, if Priya income tax rate is 12% fine pris total income before tax

Answer 1

To find Priya's total income before tax, we can start with the information we have:

- Amount deducted from the paycheck (tax withheld) = $52.50
- Income tax rate = 12%

The amount deducted as income tax can be expressed as a percentage of the total income before tax. We can set this up with the following formula:

\[
\text{Tax Withheld} = \text{Total Income Before Tax} \times \text{Tax Rate}
\]

We can rearrange this formula to find the Total Income Before Tax:

\[
\text{Total Income Before Tax} = \frac{\text{Tax Withheld}}{\text{Tax Rate}}
\]

Now, let's plug in the values:

\[
\text{Total Income Before Tax} = \frac{52.50}{0.12}
\]

Now, calculate the total income before tax:

\[
\text{Total Income Before Tax} = \frac{52.50}{0.12} = 437.50
\]

Thus, Priya's total income before tax is **$437.50**.
