Carol has 22% of her pay withheld for deductions. If she earns $680 per week, what amount is withheld?
680 x .22 = ?
To find the amount withheld, we need to calculate 22% of Carol's weekly pay.
Step 1: Convert the percentage to a decimal.
To convert 22% to decimal form, divide it by 100.
22% = 22/100 = 0.22
Step 2: Multiply the decimal by Carol's weekly pay.
To find the amount withheld, multiply 0.22 by $680.
Amount withheld = 0.22 * $680 = $149.60
Therefore, $149.60 is withheld from Carol's weekly pay.
