A woman with an hourly wage of $7.65 working 40 hours a week with no overtime pays a federal income tax of $754 for the standard deduction with three exemptions. How many days did she work to pay her federal income tax? Assume she works 8 hours a day.

I would think she works 5 days a week, 8 hours per day: 40+hours%2F%225+workdays%22=+8hours%2F%221+day%22
%22%24+754%22%2A%281hour%2F%22%24+7.65%22%29%281day%2F%228+hours%22%29=12.32days
