Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Find Kristen's gross pay
Given as $918.38$.
Step2: Calculate total deductions
Sum up all deductions: $58.72 + 37.69+218.54 + 7.12+1.17+25.00+5.44=353.68$.
Step3: Calculate net pay
Subtract total deductions from gross pay: $918.38 - 353.68 = 564.7$.
Step4: For Ashlee's hourly rate
First find gross pay by adding net income and deductions: $249+91.12 = 340.12$. Then divide by total hours worked: $\frac{340.12}{36}\approx9.45$.
Answer:
a. $918.38 b. $353.68 c. $564.7 Ashlee's hourly rate: $$9.45$
