Percentage take home pay = (gross pay - deductions) / gross pay x 100
% take-home = (3851 - 756.62) / 3851 x 100
% take-home = 80%

Answer:  Percentage of his gross pay which is take-home pay is 80.35%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Gross pay of Gavin = $3851

Deduction = $756.72

Amount that take home pay is given by

Gross pay - Deduction

\(=\$3851-\$756.72\\\\=\$3094.28\)

Percentage of his gross pay which is take - home pay is given by

\(\frac{Amount\ take\ home\ pay}{Gross\ pay}\times 100\\\\=\frac{3094.28}{3851}\times 100\\\\=80.35\%\)

Hence, Percentage of his gross pay which is take-home pay is 80.35%.
