Hi there!
I do not know the other values of the pay check, so I will explain to you how to solve for 40% of the 270 dollars. To solve, we'll need to set up a proportion. That proportion is 40/100 = x/270. Next, we need to cross-multiply: 100x = 10800. Lastly, we'll divide to figure out what 40% of 270 is. x = 108.
Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!
