WILL GIVE MEDAL AND FAN! You are paid $5.75/hr at your part-time job delivering pizzas. You usually earn $1.50/pizza as a tip. Your deductions are FICA (7.65%), federal (11.2%) and state (7.1%) If you work 10 hours and deliver 3 pizzas/hr, what is your gross pay including tips ?

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

Is that assuming that all deductions apply to total money made?

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

Nvm, I'm gonna assume it does. 5.75 per hour, 10 hours. How much?
