Question 998996: Cynthia gives 8 percent of her after-tax income to charity. If she makes $32,000 a year, and taxes take 15 percent, how much does she donate each year? Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! she makes 32000.
the government takes 15%.
.15 * 32000 = 4800.
she is left with 27200
.08 * 27200 = 2176.
that's what she gives to charity.
