Jethro has to pay his annual taxes. He knows that his tax rate is 27% of his taxable income. If he made $68,000 last year, which proportion should he use to determine how much he owes in taxes?

Ax 68000 = 27 100
B27 68000 = x 100
Cx 68000 = .27 100
D68000 x = .27 100

Verified Answer :

Answer:

\(27\times 68000 = 100x\)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let he owes x amount in taxes

He made amount last year = $68,000

His tax rate = 27%

So, he pays tax = 27% of the earning

So, A.T.Q.

\(27% \times 68000 = x\)

\(\frac{27}{100} \times 68000 = x\)

\(27\times 68000 = 100 \times x\)

Thus Option B is correct.

\(27\times 68000 = 100x\)
