x - .349x = 343.95
.651x = 343.95
x = 343.95/.651
x = 528.34

You may not have gotten screwed depending on the states, the company, and the taxe rules for each different state, city, person or business companies either take out little pay or a lot of pay for your takes like take mine for example gross pay about $500.00 bucks net pay about $380 that's all the taxes they took out that is not there in you net pay.

Substitue your Gross where X is. Then solve accordingly. Its kinda hard to understand your question.

Bostonianmo is correct.

X-.349X=343.95
On the left side there is X-.349X = 1X - 0.349X = 0.651X.
This equals 343.95.
So you get the solution for X if you divide 343.95 by 0.651.
That is : X = 343.95 / 0.651 = 528.341014
