The state, where Jonathan lives, has a five percent income tax. jonathan told Megan that he had to pay the state $1035 in taxes this year. How much did Jonathan make?

Please show work! :)

Respuesta :

1035/5% = 1035/0.05
1035/0.05 = 20,700.
He made $20,700.
taxes = income * tax rate
1035 = income * 0.05
1035/0.05 = income = 20,700

Jonathan made $20,700.
