Certainly! Let's use the supplied information to calculate the relevant deductions from Marilyn's biweekly gross pay of [tex]$810, given that she claims 3 federal withholding allowances. ### Step-by-Step Calculation: 1. Calculate the Federal Tax Based on the Given Table: - Marilyn's biweekly gross pay is $[/tex]810.
- She claims 3 federal withholding allowances.
- According to the provided table, we look at the wage bracket for "At least 800 but less than 820."

- For this wage range and 3 withholding allowances, the corresponding federal tax amount is [tex]$56. 2. Calculate the Social Security Tax: - The Social Security tax rate is 6.2%. - To find the Social Security tax, we multiply the gross pay by the tax rate. \[ \text{Social Security Tax} = 810 \times 0.062 = 50.22 \] 3. Sum Up the Total Deduction: - Next, we sum the federal tax and the Social Security tax to get the total deductions from her biweekly gross pay. \[ \text{Total Deductions} = 56 + 50.22 = 106.22 \] ### Summary of Results: - Federal Tax: $[/tex]56
- Social Security Tax: [tex]$50.22 - Total Deductions: $[/tex]106.22

So, Marilyn has a total deduction of [tex]$106.22 from her biweekly gross pay of $[/tex]810.
