we know that
To determine which employee has received the most in employee benefits, it is done by comparing the net amount obtained by subtracting the gross pay from the job benefits obtained.
So
case a) Employee A: gross pay $[tex] 32,600 [/tex] , total job benefits $[tex] 33,600 [/tex]
[tex] 33,600-32,600=1,000 [/tex]
Find the percentage
by proportion
[tex] \frac{32,600}{100} =\frac{1,000}{x} \\ \\ 32,600*x=1,000*100 [/tex]
[tex] x=3.067 [/tex]%
case b) Employee B: gross pay $[tex] 32,900 [/tex] , total job benefits $[tex] 34,000 [/tex]
[tex] 34,000-32,900=1,100 [/tex]
Find the percentage
by proportion
[tex] \frac{32,900}{100} =\frac{1,100}{x} \\ \\ 32,900*x=1,100*100 [/tex]
[tex] x=3.343 [/tex]%
case c) Employee C: gross pay $[tex] 33,400 [/tex] , total job benefits $[tex] 33,900 [/tex]
[tex] 33,900-33,400=500 [/tex]
Find the percentage
by proportion
[tex] \frac{33,400}{100} =\frac{500}{x} \\ \\ 33,400*x=500*100 [/tex]
[tex] x=1.947 [/tex]%
case d) Employee D: gross pay $[tex] 33,700 [/tex] , total job benefits $[tex] 34,700 [/tex]
[tex] 34,700-33,700=1,000 [/tex]
Find the percentage
by proportion
[tex] \frac{33,700}{100} =\frac{1,000}{x} \\ \\ 33,700*x=1,000*100 [/tex]
[tex] x=2.967 [/tex]%
therefore
the answer is the option
Employee B: gross pay $[tex] 32,900 [/tex] , total job benefits $[tex] 34,000 [/tex]
