Certainly! Let's solve this step-by-step.
First, we need to understand that Josey's employer covers 55% of her insurance premiums. Therefore, Josey will pay the remaining percentage.
1. Since percentages must total 100%, if the employer covers 55%, Josey must cover:
[tex]\[
100\% - 55\% = 45\%
\][/tex]
2. Her total insurance premium is [tex]$575. To find out how much 45% of $[/tex]575 is, we can use the formula:
[tex]\[
\text{Josey's payment} = \frac{45}{100} \times 575
\][/tex]
3. Calculate [tex]\( \frac{45}{100} \)[/tex]:
[tex]\[
\frac{45}{100} = 0.45
\][/tex]
4. Multiply this by the total premium:
[tex]\[
0.45 \times 575 = 258.75
\][/tex]
Therefore, Josey pays $258.75 for her insurance premium.
