228 times .07 = 15.96 ... 228 - 15.96 = 212.04

mutliply 228 x 7% most calculators have a % key, so it really is enter 228, press x key, then 7 and % keys or x.07
you can also do the difference so you dont have to subtract so it would be 228 x 93% or .93 saves you from having to do the extra steps.

With a calculator it would be much faster. First you ask yourself, in mathematical terms... what is 7% of 228? Then you grab 228 multiply by .07 (which makes is 7 percent), you get the answer which would be 15.96 -- the 15.96 is your 7% from 228 ... Then you just simply take 228 minus 15.96, leaving you with 211.04.

Multiply $228 by .07 equals the 7% tax. Subtract that from the $228 and that is your paycheck. Are you sure that's all they're taking out? Usually they take federal tax, state tax if there is one, medicare tax and sometimes other stuff.

depending on where you live, and how many you claimed on your w-4, but for a rough guess in indiana i take off 25% for taxes so to figure out how much you will take home multiply 228 x .75 = 171, i think that the 7% youre refering to would be sales tax which concerns only stuff you buy

multiply 228 by 0.93 and you have what's left after tax. (100% - 7% = 93%) 93% of 228 is 212.04

228 times .07
You move the decimal point two places to the left and multiply.

If its 7%, for every $100 you get, you lose $7 to tax.
If 1 = 100%
7% = (1/100 ) x 7 = 0.07
228 x 0.07 = 15.96 tax

Paying more because you earn more is a socialist tax system just like the socialist education system and the social(ist) security system. Americans have been brainwashed into accepting this principle its amazing. If you use the same state and federal facilities, Roads, schools, parks why should you pay more? Taking your money and giving it to someone else instead of spending it on the country is socialism. You don't get any more, why should just living in America cost you four or seven times more than someone else?
