6*.75=4.5 per hour after taxes.
450/4.5=100 hours needed to make the $450 after taxes.
assuming you want to know how many hours excluding the tax deficit then
450/6=75 hours will be needed to make $450

you have to take 6 and multiply it to 25% and you'll get 9. you then take 450 and divide it by 9. you then will get 50. and 50 is the number of hours she worked. i hope that it is right.
