You can put this solution on YOUR website! The federal tax on a $12,000 salary was 8 times the state tax. The combined taxes were $2,700. Find the state's share of taxes.
FT = 8*ST
FT + ST = 2700
--------------
Sub for FT in 2nd eqn
8ST + ST = 2700
9ST = 2700
ST = $300
FT = $2400
and don't be late with the payments.
