I need help with this maths question?
If you could, step it out so I know how to do it next time :)
Tai earns a gross weekly wage of $1024. Each week her deductions are:
*tax instalment of $296.40
*health fund contribution of $24.50
*union fees of $15.80
She also pays $3640 over the year as her share of the household expenses. What percentage of her net wage does Tai pay for household expenses?
Does net mean after all the deductions have been made?
Thanks in advance :)
How do I work out the percentage?

1024 - 296.40 - 24.50 - 15.80 = $ 687.30 per week
3640 /52 = $ 70 per week
70 / 687.30 X 100 = 10.18 % ANSWER

Yes it does! The inverse is a 'gross wage' when you don't deduce all possible deductions(logically). There are 52 weeks in a year and thus you have all the things you need to get a find the solution. :3
Good luck!
